Mechanobiology of orofacial tissues: principles, mechanisms, and therapeutic applications

A cross-tissue review presents a three-level mechanobiology framework for orofacial tissues and traces biomaterials evolution toward smart regenerative systems.

Key Takeaways
  • Current studies are mostly limited to single tissues or specific pathway analyses
  • This study presents several distinct differences from previous research
  • Previous studies have predominantly focused on the biomechanical properties of individual orofacial tissues
