Summary
Additive manufacturing (3D printing) is an emerging field of science due to its freedom of fabrication in engineering and biomedical areas. Patient-specific customized medical models can be fabricated within a short time, which is a major advantage of 3D printing. Scaffolds, implants, organ models, and so on are developed for tissue engineering, wound healing, and drug delivery applications using a wide range of materials like polymers, ceramics, hydrogels, etc. Printed scaffolds help in the efficient regeneration of damaged tissues, which is one of the most essential criteria required in tissue engineering applications. This chapter discusses the potential applications of 3D printing technology, which mainly deals with the application of 3D printed scaffolds in tissue engineering.
