Recent advances in 3D printing of biomaterials

2015 | Helena N Chia and Benjamin M Wu
This review article discusses the recent advances in 3D printing of biomaterials, focusing on the development and application of various 3D printing technologies such as Three Dimensional Printing (3DP), Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), Stereolithography (SLA), and 3D Plotting/Direct-Write/Bioprinting. The article highlights the progress in creating complex biomedical devices, implants, scaffolds for tissue engineering, diagnostic platforms, and drug delivery systems. It emphasizes the integration of computer-aided design, advanced imaging techniques, and rapid prototyping to fabricate patient-specific models and devices. The review also addresses the limitations and challenges in using 3D printing for biomaterials, such as material selection, resolution, and post-processing. Recent advancements in material science and technology are discussed, including the development of new biomaterials, improvements in printing techniques, and the integration of cells and bioactive agents. The article concludes by outlining future directions for 3D printing in tissue engineering, emphasizing the need for higher resolution, better material compatibility, and the incorporation of nanoarchitectures.This review article discusses the recent advances in 3D printing of biomaterials, focusing on the development and application of various 3D printing technologies such as Three Dimensional Printing (3DP), Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), Stereolithography (SLA), and 3D Plotting/Direct-Write/Bioprinting.
