Abstract
The rehabilitation of alveolar bone defects of moderate to severe size is often challenging. Currently, the therapeutic approaches used include, among others, the guided bone regeneration technique combined with various bone grafts. Although these techniques are widely applied, several limitations and complications have been reported such as morbidity, suboptimal graft/membrane resorption rate, low structural integrity, and dimensional stability. Thus, the development of biomimetic scaffolds with tailor-made characteristics that can modulate cell and tissue interaction may be a promising tool. This article presents a critical consideration in scaffold's design and development while also providing information on various fabrication methods of these nanosystems. Their utilization as delivery systems will also be mentioned.

Abstract
Scaffolds have been used to promote periodontal regeneration by providing control over the spacio-temporal healing of the periodontium (cementum, periodontal ligament (PDL) and alveolar bone). This study proposes to enhance the biofunctionality of a biphasic scaffold for periodontal regeneration by means of cell-laid extracellular matrix (ECM) decoration. To this end, a melt electrowritten scaffold was cultured with human osteoblasts for the deposition of bone-specific ECM. In parallel, periodontal ligament cells were used to form a cell sheet, which was later combined with the bone ECM scaffold to form a biphasic PDL-bone construct. The resulting biphasic construct was decellularised to remove all cellular components while preserving the deposited matrix. Decellularisation efficacy was confirmed in vitro, before the regenerative performance of freshly decellularised constructs was compared to that of 3-months stored freeze-dried scaffolds in a rodent periodontal defect model. Four weeks post-surgery, microCT revealed similar bone formation in all groups. Histology showed higher amounts of newly formed cementum and periodontal attachment in the fresh and freeze-dried ECM functionalised scaffolds, although it did not reach statistical significance. This study demonstrated that the positive effect of ECM decoration was preserved after freeze-drying and storing the construct for 3 months, which has important implications for clinical translation.

Abstract
Recent advancements in decellularization have seen the development of extracellular matrix (ECM)-decorated scaffolds for bone regeneration; however, little is understood of the impact of in vitro culture prior to decellularization on the performances of these constructs. Therefore, this study investigated the effect of in vitro culture on ECM-decorated melt electrowritten polycaprolactone scaffold bioactivity. The scaffolds were seeded with osteoblasts and cultured for 1, 2, or 4 weeks to facilitate bone-specific ECM deposition and subsequently decellularized to form an acellular ECM-decorated scaffold. The utilization of mild chemicals and DNase was highly efficient in removing DNA while preserving ECM structure and composition. ECM decoration of the melt electrowritten fibers was observed within the first week of culture, with increased ECM at 2 and 4 week culture periods. Infiltration of re-seeded cells as well as overall bone regeneration in a rodent calvarial model was impeded by a longer culture period. Thus, it was demonstrated that the length of culture has a key influence on the osteogenic properties of decellularized ECM-decorated scaffolds, with long-term culture (2+ weeks) causing pore obstruction and creating a physical barrier which interfered with bone formation. These findings have important implications for the development of effective ECM-decorated scaffolds for bone regeneration.

Abstract
The oral and maxillofacial region contains oral organs and facial soft tissues. Due to the complexity of the structures and functions of this region, the repair of related defects is complicated. Different degrees of defects require different repair methods, which involve a great combination of medicine and art, and the material requirements are extremely high. Hence, clinicians are plagued by contemporary oral repair materials due to the limitations of bone harvesting, immune rejection, low osteogenic activity and other problems. Decellularized extracellular matrix has attracted much attention as a bioactive scaffold material because of its nonimmunogenic properties, good osteogenic properties, slow release of growth factors, promotion of seed cell adhesion and maintenance of stem cell characteristics. This article reviews the sources, preparation methods, application and research progress of extracellular matrix materials in the repair of oral and maxillofacial defects to provide an overview for fundamental research and clinical development.

Abstract
Successful periodontal regeneration requires the hierarchical reorganization of multiple tissues including periodontal ligament, cementum, alveolar bone, and gingiva. The limitation of conventional regenerative therapies has been attracting research interest in tissue engineering-based periodontal therapies where progenitor cells, scaffolds, and bioactive molecules are delivered. Scaffolds offer not only structural support but also provide geometrical clue to guide cell fate. Additionally, functionalization improves bioactive properties to the scaffold. Various scaffold designs have been proposed for periodontal regeneration. These include the fabrication of biomimetic periodontal extracellular matrix, multiphasic scaffolds with tissue-specific layers, and personalized 3D printed scaffolds. This review summarizes the basic concept as well as the recent advancement of scaffold designing and fabrication for periodontal regeneration and provides an insight of future clinical translation.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by loss of attachment and destruction of the periodontium. Decellularized sheet, as an advanced tissue regeneration engineering biomaterial, has been researched and applied in many fields, but its effects on periodontal regeneration remain unclear. In this study, the biological properties of decellularized human periodontal ligament cell (dHPDLC) sheets were evaluated in vitro. Polycaprolactone/gelatin (PCL/GE) nanofibers were fabricated as a carrier to enhance the mechanical strength of the dHPDLC sheet. 15-deoxy-[Formula: see text]-prostaglandin J2 (15d-PGJ2) nanoparticles were added for anti-inflammation and regeneration improvement. For in vivo analysis, dHPDLC sheets combined with 15d-PGJ2 nanoparticles, with or without PCL/GE, were implanted into rat periodontal defects. The periodontal regeneration effects were identified by microcomputed tomography (micro-CT) and histological staining, and immunohistochemistry. The results revealed that DNA content was reduced by 96.6%. The hepatocyte growth factor, vascular endothelial growth factor, and basic fibroblast growth factor were preserved but reduced. The expressions or distribution of collagen I and fibronectin were similar in dHPDLC and nondecellularized cell sheets. The dHPDLC sheets maintained the intact structure of the extracellular matrix. It could be recellularized by allogeneic human periodontal stem ligament cells and retain osteoinductive potential. Newly formed bone, cementum, and PDL were observed in dHPDLC sheets combined with 15d-PGJ2 groups, with or without PCL/GE nanofibers, for four weeks post-operation in vivo. Bringing together all these points, this new construct of dHPDLC sheets can be a potential candidate for periodontal regeneration in an inflammatory environment of the oral cavity.

Abstract
Numerous treatment methods have been developed to modify the surface of dental implants to improve cell migration and proliferation, removal torque, and osseointegration. Recent studies have constructed cell sheet-implant complexes with enhanced osteogenic capabilities. However, these complexes have some limitations, such as requirements for complex preparation processes, cell vitality maintenance, strict preservation conditions, and the induction of immunogenicity. Extracellular matrix (ECM) sheets without cells may be a more desirable material. To date, the effect of ECM sheets on implant osseointegration has not been reported. In this study, we fabricated ECM sheet-implant complexes through the combination of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC)-derived ECM sheets with sandblasted, large-grit, acid-etched (SLA) implants. These complexes were characterized by light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and immunofluorescence (IF) assays. The adhesion, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs cultured on ECM sheets were detected in vitro. Then, the ECM sheet-implant complexes were transplanted into the metaphysis of the tibias of rats to evaluate the implant osseointegration in vivo. The results showed that ECM sheets were successfully constructed and showed significantly improved adhesion and proliferation. BMSCs cultured on ECM sheets upregulated the expression levels of the osteogenic-related genes alkaline phosphatase (ALP), bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2), and runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2) compared to controls. In vivo, ECM sheet-implant complexes demonstrated superior new bone formation. Our findings proved that the BMSC-derived ECM sheets promoted osseointegration in vitro and in vivo. The current study indicated that the ECM sheet could be an ideal tissue engineering material, and ECM sheet-implant complexes could provide a strategy with low immunogenicity and easy storage and transportation. This research provides a novel strategy for the development of implant surface modification approaches.

Abstract
The mineralized tissues (alveolar bone and cementum) are the major components of periodontal tissues and play a critical role to anchor periodontal ligament (PDL) to tooth-root surfaces. The integrated multiple tissues could generate biological or physiological responses to transmitted biomechanical forces by mastication or occlusion. However, due to periodontitis or traumatic injuries, affect destruction or progressive damage of periodontal hard tissues including PDL could be affected and consequently lead to tooth loss. Conventional tissue engineering approaches have been developed to regenerate or repair periodontium but, engineered periodontal tissue formation is still challenging because there are still limitations to control spatial compartmentalization for individual tissues and provide optimal 3D constructs for tooth-supporting tissue regeneration and maturation. Here, we present the recently developed strategies to induce osteogenesis and cementogenesis by the fabrication of 3D architectures or the chemical modifications of biopolymeric materials. These techniques in tooth-supporting hard tissue engineering are highly promising to promote the periodontal regeneration and advance the interfacial tissue formation for tissue integrations of PDL fibrous connective tissue bundles (alveolar bone-to-PDL or PDL-to-cementum) for functioning restorations of the periodontal complex.

Abstract
The periodontium, consisting of gingiva, periodontal ligament, cementum, and alveolar bone, is a hierarchically organized tissue whose primary role is to provide physical and mechanical support to the teeth. Severe cases of periodontitis, an inflammatory condition initiated by an oral bacterial biofilm, can lead to significant destruction of soft and hard tissues of the periodontium and result in compromised dental function and aesthetics. Although current treatment approaches can limit the progression of the disease by controlling the inflammatory aspect, complete periodontal regeneration cannot be predictably achieved. Various tissue engineering approaches are investigated for their ability to control the critical temporo-spatial wound healing events that are essential for achieving periodontal regeneration. This paper reviews recent progress in the field of periodontal tissue engineering with an emphasis on advanced 3D multiphasic tissue engineering constructs (TECs) and provides a critical analysis of their regenerative potential and limitations. The review also elaborates on the future of periodontal tissue engineering, including scaffold customization for individual periodontal defects, TEC's functionalization strategies for imparting enhanced bioactivity, periodontal ligament fiber guidance, and the utilization of chair-side regenerative solutions that can facilitate clinical translation.
