Cleft lip and palate is the fourth most common congenital malformation. Its prevalence is
about 1 in 750 to 1 in 2000 live births. The consequences of this malformation are major …

One of the most common hereditary craniofacial anomalies in humans are cleft lip and cleft
alveolar bone with or without cleft palate. Current clinical practice, the augmentation of 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) …

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

Abstract Three-dimensional (3D) printing is considered a key technology in the production of
customized scaffolds for bone tissue engineering. In a previous work, we developed a 3D …

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) …

Background Bone grafting has been considered the gold standard for hard tissue
reconstructive surgery and is widely used for large mandibular defect reconstruction …

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 …

The rising incidence of defects in oral and maxillofacial tissues, linked to factors such as
trauma, tumors, periodontal disease, and aging, poses significant challenges. Current …

Recent developments in craniofacial reconstruction have shown important advances in both
the materials and methods used. While autogenous tissue is still considered to be the gold …
