Exploring Manufacturing Techniques in Bioceramic Scaffold Fabrication with a Focus on DIW 3D Printing for Tissue Engineering Applications

Abstract

In recent years, notable advancements have been achieved in the domain of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, presenting auspicious remedies for the management of diverse injuries and ailments. The management of bone injuries necessitates the implementation of a customized approach depending upon the specific nature of the injury. Tissue engineering plays a major role in the treatment of such bone injuries. One key aspect of tissue engineering is the development of scaffolds that can provide structural support and guide the growth of new tissue. The scaffold should possess mechanical properties that enable it to withstand weight-bearing stresses, resembling the strength and durability of real bone. This review explores the latest research findings from pioneering research papers in tissue engineering, focusing on scaffolds, bioceramics, and the various technique for the development of scaffolds with a focus on 3D printing. By examining and synthesizing key studies in these areas, this review aims to provide insights into the current state of knowledge, identify research gaps, and contribute to the advancement of tissue engineering approaches for regenerative medicine applications.
