Osteo-mucosal engineered construct: In situ adhesion of hard-soft tissues

The aim of this work was to combine engineered hard and soft tissue, adopting a new method for interfacial adhesion of osteo-mucosal construct. We hypothesized that the chemical procedure involved in this method not only adheres the components, but also improves the cell growth inside them.3D-printed functionally-graded porous hard-tissue scaffolds were characterized, functionalized by aminolysis and tyrosinase, and accommodated by human...
