TL;DR: Laser metal sintering proved to be an efficient means of construction of dental implants with a functionally graded material which is better adapted to the elastic properties of the bone and should minimize stress shielding effects and improve long-term performance.

TL;DR: In vivo results showed that 3D-PLA’s scaffolds implanted in rats subjected to cortical calvaria bone tissue damage were able to improve bone healing by showing better osteogenic properties and the re-establishing of the integrity of the bone lesions could be a promising strategy in the treatment of accidental or surgery trauma.

TL;DR: The tissue pattern appeared composed by residual ABB particles in close contact to the newly formed bone after 9 years, demonstrating both a high level of osteoconductivity and a "biomimetic" behavior over the long term.

TL;DR: A population of homogeneous human mesenchymal stem cells proliferating in culture with an attached well-spread morphology derived from periodontal ligament, tissue of ectomeschymal origin, with the ability to form a specialized joint between alveolar bone and tooth is isolated and characterized.

TL;DR: For a suitable and successful bone tissue reconstruction the surface texture is of paramount importance and stem cells exerted a different response, depending on the different type of textured surface.
