TISSUE ENGINEERING (TE) EFFECTIVENESS FOR PERIODONTAL TISSUE AND EDENTULOUS RIDGE REGENERATION

Background: Tissue engineering is a biomedical technology that was developed to assist the regeneration of body tissue in treating defects that are difficult to cure so that the tissue can repair itself. The tissue engineering approach for bone and periodontal tissue regeneration combines three key elements to enhance regeneration: scaffold, signaling molecules, and stem/progenitor cells. Purpose: To determine the effectiveness of tissue engineering (te) for regeneration of periodontal tissue and edentulous ridges. Methods: This research method is descriptive observational through a systematic and structured library search based on applicable rules (Literature review). This research was taken from searches for academic journals, reputable international journals or SCOPUS indexed such as PubMed, and Science Direct, as well as unreputed Tissue engineering (TE) has the goal of replacing lost tissue, whether caused by congenital defects, trauma, or surgery. Tissue engineering can also be defined as combining cells, materials,
bioactives, and environmental factors to create functional biological tissues.
