Electrospinning is an old yet fascinating technique. It is a method of producing ultra fine fibers. It utlizes a high voltage to create an electric field which draws a polymer solution or melt into a jet, that dries due to evaporation of the solvent or solidifies to form fine fibers of nanometer range. Electrospinningenables the creation of scaffolds that closely mimic the natural extracellular matrix.These fibers have multiple applications in tissue regeneration. In the field of periodontology, electrospinning has attracted attention for its potential uses in tissue engineering, guided tissue regeneration (GTR), and drug delivery. The combination of electrospinning and 3D printing presents thrilling prospects for revolutionizing tissue engineering in periodontology. This cutting-edge approach has the potential to significantly boost the effectiveness of regenerative therapies, leading to improved patient outcomes. Continued research will be essential to fully harness the clinical possibilities of these technologies. |
