Abstract
Craniofacial bone defects present a unique challenge due to the complex anatomical and functional demands of the region. Composite bioactive scaffolds have emerged as promising strategies for bone regeneration, combining the structural support of inorganic materials with the biological responsiveness of natural or synthetic polymers. This review discusses recent advancements in composite scaffolds tailored for alveolar and maxillofacial bone repair, with an emphasis on material selection, scaffold architecture, bioactivity, and therapeutic delivery capabilities. Key features, including porosity, mechanical strength, degradation rate, and anatomical adaptability, are evaluated for their clinical relevance. Furthermore, the roles of ion release, surface topography, and incorporation of growth factors or stem cells in modulating osteogenesis, angiogenesis, and immune responses are…
