Biofabrication Approaches for Peri-Implantitis Tissue Regeneration: A Focus on Bioprinting Methods

Dental implant utilization has emerged as a contemporary strategy for rectifying dental arch anomalies. However, the effective management of potential complications is paramount. Peri-implantitis, characterized by inflammation and bone resorption around dental implants, resembles periodontitis but specifically affects implant sites. Restoring lost peri-implant tissues poses a multifaceted challenge, with bioprinting methods showing promise as a viable solution. Three-dimensional bioprinting represents a forefront advancement in tissue engineering, traditionally focusing on scaffolds, cells, and signaling pathways. This systematic review aims to aggregate and synthesize data concerning bioprinting's application in peri-implantitis treatment. Adhering to PRISMA guidelines, the review conducted an extensive literature search across PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar, and ScienceDirect. Importantly, the search timeframe was not limited, reflecting the scarcity of available information on the subject. Bioprinting advancements offer auspicious avenues for refining treatment modalities, prompting clinicians to explore optimal solutions for establishing ideal anatomical conditions. In essence, this systematic review underscores 3D bioprinting's potential in peri-implantitis management, highlighting its pivotal role in contemporary dental medicine and its capacity to reshape clinical approaches toward achieving optimal outcomes.
