In recent years, microbially mediated mineralization, a widespread form of biomineralization in nature, has emerged as a research hotspot. This process not only exerts profound influences on mineral formation and global biogeochemical cycling but also contributes to mineral deposition within living organisms, thereby holding significant ecological and biological importance. Among microorganisms, bacteria—characterized by high metabolic activity and remarkable environmental adaptability—represent the most prominent agents in microbial mineralization. This review summarizes the mechanisms of bacteria-mediated mineralization and their applications in the biomedical field, with a particular emphasis on three principal mechanisms: bacteria-controlled mineralization, bacteria-induced mineralization, and bacteria-influenced mineralization. Furthermore, the potential applications of these processes in medical imaging, targeted therapy, and tissue engineering are discussed. The overarching aim is to provide valuable references and scientific insights to inform future research and facilitate their translation into practical applications.
