Abstract
Organoids are groups of organ-specific cells that are cultivated using three-dimensional (3D) in vitro culture techniques. These cells closely resemble their in vivo counterparts in terms of physiology and occasionally morphology. Recent developments in organoid technology and its prospective uses in various research in craniofacial biology encompassing cell biology, developmental biology, disease pathology, precision medicine, drug toxicity, and tissue engineering which have made organoid an essential component of both physiological and pathological indignation. The bioprinting of three-dimensional tissue structures is an emerging technology that utilizes traditional 3D printing techniques with living cells incorporated in a bioink resembling an extracellular matrix (ECM) to create functional biomimetic tissues.
Keywords: bioprinting; biomimetic; organoid; stem cells, oral biology.
