Abstract
Background
Regenerative dentistry aims to reinstate, fix, renew, and regrow tissues within the oral and craniofacial domain. Existing regenerative methods are based on insights into tissue biology or disease processes that lead to tissue degradation. However, achieving complete and functional Tissue regeneration remains a primary challenge in real-world medical scenarios.
Aim
The review focuses on the application of bioprinting techniques for rejuvenating intricate Oral and craniofacial tissues, such as craniofacial bone, periodontal ligament, cementum, dental pulp, temporomandibular joint cartilage, and whole teeth.
Methods
Bioprinting, a cutting-edge technology in regenerative dentistry, strives to create entirely new Functional tissues and organs. This approach merges principles from engineering and biology to produce three-dimensional biologically operational constructs containing bioactive substances, Living cells and cell clusters using automated bioprinters. The review summarizes the outcomes achieved through bioprinting techniques in both in vitro (laboratory experiments) and in vivo (Studies on living organisms) experiments.
Result
The emergence of this innovative tissue engineering technology has yielded highly promising outcomes during the experimental stages.
Conclusion
These promising experimental results necessitate replication through human clinical trials to ascertain the viability of bioprinting techniques for mainstream clinical implementation in regenerative dentistry.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial Research (JOBCR)is the official journal of the Craniofacial Research Foundation (CRF). The journal aims to provide a common platform for both clinical and translational research and to promote interdisciplinary sciences in craniofacial region. JOBCR publishes content that includes diseases, injuries and defects in the head, neck, face, jaws and the hard and soft tissues of the mouth and jaws and face region; diagnosis and medical management of diseases specific to the orofacial tissues and of oral manifestations of systemic diseases; studies on identifying populations at risk of oral disease or in need of specific care, and comparing regional, environmental, social, and access similarities and differences in dental care between populations; diseases of the mouth and related structures like salivary glands, temporomandibular joints, facial muscles and perioral skin; biomedical engineering, tissue engineering and stem cells. The journal publishes reviews, commentaries, peer-reviewed original research articles, short communication, and case reports.
