3D Bioprinting and Nanotechnology in Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine

From Dentistry Made Simple Dentistry Made Simple

Discusses the fields of 3D bioprinting and nanotechnology as they apply to tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Specifically, it explores various additive manufacturing (AM) techniques, such as selective laser sintering (SLS), stereolithography (SLA), and laser-assisted bioprinting (LAB) methods like laser-guided direct writing (LGDW) and matrix-assisted pulsed laser evaporation direct writing (MAPLEDW), outlining their mechanisms, pros, and cons. A significant focus is placed on nanobiomaterials, particularly carbon nanotubes (CNTs), and their utility in augmenting scaffolds for tissue types like bone and cartilage. Furthermore, the sources cover the role of hydrogels and nanocomposites in creating viable, mechanically sound scaffolds for applications ranging from craniofacial bone reconstruction to skin and neural tissue regeneration, while also considering intellectual property (IP) and ethical implications.
