Electrospun Polymeric Composites for Dental Tissue Engineering: Materials, Fabrication Strategies, Biological Performance, and Clinical Translation

Oral diseases impact approximately 3.5 billion individuals globally, often leading to the loss or damage of periodontal, alveolar bone, dentin-pulp, or oral soft tissues. Consequently, dental tissue engineering necessitates scaffolds that can simultaneously offer a three-dimensional extracellular matrix-like microenvir...
