Introduction The lack or complete loss of all-natural teeth is known as edentulism, and it happens frequently. One of the most prevalent issues among edentulous patients is severe resorption of the residual alveolar ridge, which can still occur even with cautious prosthetic treatment. Therefore, one of the biggest issues faced in dentistry today is retention and stability in the rehabilitation of completely edentulous patients using complete denture prostheses.

NIR-Responsive Deployable and Self-Fitting 4D-Printed Bone Tissue Scaffold.

ACS Appl Mater Interfaces

September 2024

Department of Bioengineering, Indian Institute of Science, C.V. Raman Avenue, Bangalore 560012, India.

The treatment of irregular-shaped and critical-sized bone defects poses a clinical challenge. Deployable, self-fitting tissue scaffolds that can be implanted by minimally invasive procedures are a promising solution. Toward this, we fabricated NIR-responsive and programmable polylactide-co-trimethylene carbonate (PLMC) scaffolds nanoengineered with polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA) by extrusion-based three-dimensional (3D) printing.
