Reconstruction of maxilla defects has remained one of the most challenging problems in
craniomaxillofacial reconstruction because it typically requires harvesting and grafting of …

Bone tissue engineering technology based on scaffold has been applied for cleft lip and
palate treatment. However, clinical applications of patient-specific three-dimensional (3D) …

Abstract Three-dimensional (3D) printing of scaffolds for tissue engineering applications has
grown substantially in the past two decades. Unlike conventional autografts and allografts …

Current methods in handling maxillofacial defects are not robust and are highly dependent
on the surgeon's skills and the inherent potential in the patients' bodies for regenerating lost …

Objectives This study investigates the design, workflow, and manufacture of highly porous,
resorbable additively manufactured, 3‐dimensional (3D) custom scaffolds for the …

This review will briefly examine the development of 3D‐printed scaffolds for craniofacial
bone regeneration. We will, in particular, highlight our work using Poly (L‐lactic acid)(PLLA) …

The treatment of large craniomaxillofacial bone defects is clinically challenging due to the
limited availability of transplantable autologous bone grafts and the complex geometry of the …

Background The mandible is a functional bio-organ that supports facial structures and helps
mastication and speaking. Large mandible defects, generally greater than 6-cm segment …

(1) Background: In the present study, we evaluated the efficacy of a 3D-printed, patient-
specific polycaprolactone/beta tricalcium phosphate (PCL/β-TCP) scaffold in the treatment of …

The field of craniomaxillofacial (CMF) surgery is rich in pathological diversity and broad in
the ages that it treats. Moreover, the CMF skeleton is a complex confluence of sensory …
