Abstract |
Malformations of the maxillofacial region has disturbing psychosocial effects and causes enormous socioeconomic concerns. The management of maxillofacial defects caused by congenital anomalies, trauma, osteoporotic fractures, periodontitis, or cancer treatment is challenging for oral and maxillofacial surgeons. Numerous approaches have been recommended for the managing of these deficiencies. The traditional treatment for maxillofacial defects or their repair is an intricate process by autologous bone grafts from the scapula, ribs, fibula, or iliac crest origins. Regenerative medicine is well thought-out as a perfect substitute approach for autologous bone grafts to renovate bone deficiencies. The use of stem cells has improved results and offered a technique to reconstruct craniofacial bone defects. The field of tissue engineering for the regeneration of maxillofacial needs integration of biochemical and biomaterial engineering aspects with cell transplantation to generate better-quality biomimetic scaffolds, prevascularize three-dimensional (3D) tissue structures, and engineer the composite interface of diverse facial tissues. In this review, we have discussed the application of different adult stem cells to repair oral and maxillofacial defects in animal models and clinical trials.
