Three-dimensional (3D) printing offers a cost-effective solution for creating patient-specific bone scaffolds. This additive manufacturing technique enables the fabrication of complex, functionally graded biomaterials for tissue repair and replacement.

Area of Science:

  • Biomaterials Science
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Additive Manufacturing

Background:

  • Patient-specific bone scaffolds are crucial for tissue replacement and repair, necessitating advanced manufacturing techniques.
  • Functionally graded hybrid materials present manufacturing challenges regarding constituent proportions and configurations.
  • A cost-effective, adaptive manufacturing method is needed to create bone scaffolds matching anatomical defect shapes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the development of computer-aided design (CAD) approaches for bone scaffold manufacturing.
  • To explore the optimization of scaffold architecture, materials, and process parameters for biomimetic performance.
  • To describe the advantages and limitations of additive manufacturing (3D printing) for bone tissue scaffolds.
