Ceramic Nanofiber Materials for Wound Healing and Bone Regeneration: A Brief Review

Materials (Basel). 2022 May 31;15(11):3909. doi: 10.3390/ma15113909.

Abstract

Ceramic nanofibers have been shown to be a new horizon of research in the biomedical area, due to their differentiated morphology, nanoroughness, nanotopography, wettability, bioactivity, and chemical functionalization properties. Therefore, considering the impact caused by the use of these nanofibers, and the fact that there are still limited data available in the literature addressing the ceramic nanofiber application in regenerative medicine, this review article aims to gather the state-of-the-art research concerning these materials, for potential use as a biomaterial for wound healing and bone regeneration, and to analyze their characteristics when considering their application.

Keywords: bone regeneration; ceramic nanofibers; regenerative medicine; wound healing.
