Bone tissue engineering

Bone tissue engineering is a field that aims to repair or replace damaged or missing bone by combining biological materials, such as stem cells and growth factors, with scaffolds that mimic natural bone structure. These scaffolds provide a framework for new bone cells to grow and eventually integrate with the existing bone, promoting healing without the need for traditional grafts. This innovative approach helps treat complex fractures, bone defects, or diseases, offering a promising alternative to traditional surgeries with improved healing outcomes and reduced complications.
