Book cover Applications of Biomedical Engineering in Dentistry

Abstract

Tissue engineering is a novel and multidisciplinary field that intends to remake functional, sound tissues and organs to supplant unhealthy or dead tissues. The advancement of tissue engineering for dental tissues is promising, and different dental soft and hard tissues have been regenerated effectively in vitro, utilizing stem cells and scaffolds. In almost any tissue engineering application, there are various challenges and unanswered inquiries that should be settled for further advancements. It is expected that in the next few decades, the field of dentistry will be altered remarkably by the accessibility of novel tissue-engineered products in the dental industry. This book chapter aims to address the advancement of tissue engineering for different dental hard and soft tissues, such as enamel, dentin, bone, periodontium, oral mucosa, and salivary glands. Additionally, challenges in the advancement of tissue engineering and future trends have been summarized in this book chapter.
