 3-dimensional, 3D printing has great potential for fabricating scaffolds for tissue engineering due to its ability to create complex geometries, porous structures, and co-cultures of multiple cells. Researchers have developed novel biomaterials and compositions to enable their use in 3D printing methods. Ceramic, polymer, and composite materials are commonly used in 3D printing for tissue engineering purposes. Ceramics are often combined with polymers to improve printability, while polymer-based biomaterials are typically extruded for greater versatility. Tissue engineering requires the development of multiple biomaterials and fabrication methods, and 3D printing offers a promising solution.
