Today Prospects for Tissue Engineering Therapeutic Approach in Dentistry

Today Prospects for Tissue Engineering Therapeutic Approach in Dentistry

In dental practice there is an increasing need for predictable therapeutic protocols able to regenerate tissues that, due to inflammatory or traumatic events, may suffer from loss of their function. One of the topics arising major interest in the research applied to regenerative medicine is represented by tissue engineering and, in particular, by stem cells. The study of stem cells in dentistry...

Tissue engineering in dentistry.

OBJECTIVES of this review is to inform practitioners with the most updated information on tissue engineering and its potential applications in dentistry. DATA The authors used "PUBMED" to find relevant literature written in English and published from the beginning of tissue engineering until today. A combination of keywords was used as the search terms e.g., "tissue engineering", "approaches"...

Membrane Engineering for Today and for Tomorrow

Nanomaterials for Tissue Engineering In Dentistry

The tissue engineering (TE) of dental oral tissue is facing significant changes in clinical treatments in dentistry. TE is based on a stem cell, signaling molecule, and scaffold triad that must be known and calibrated with attention to specific sectors in dentistry. This review article shows a summary of micro- and nanomorphological characteristics of dental tissues, of stem cells available in ...

Bone Tissue Engineering for Dentistry and Orthopaedics

Bone has a strong capacity for self-repair; however, conditions such as complex trauma, tumor, infection, and congenital disorders, which can cause large bone defects and resorption, often result in devastating deficits of dental and skeletal tissues. Clinically, this can lead to nonunion of bone and the loss of functional support to surrounding tissues, with the consequence of significant impa...
