Current Trends in Bone Grafts - A Review

Human bone is susceptible to damage from infections, fractures, and diseases. They do, however, have an amazing ability repair themselves after being exposed such factors, which accomplished by a dynamic process of remodeling, maturation, differentiation, regulated resorption. Larger defects, on the other hand, cannot be fully restored because their sizes exceed capacity bones repair. In cases, medical intervention required stabilize, align, support damaged region so that lost function restored. The goal Bone Tissue Engineering incite promote natural healing bone, does not occur in critical-sized defects. A biocompatible synthetic scaffold must biodegradable allow native tissue integration mimic multidimensional hierarchical structure bone. Several biomaterials been studied for potential as materials, including ceramics, metals, polymers, composites. Polymers, emerged primary material engineering due tunable physiochemical properties, biocompatibility, controllable biodegradability. This literature review provides insight into current trends graft
