Bone fracture healing is a challenging process, due to insufficient and slow tissue repair. Sufferers from bone fractures struggle with one-third of nonunion, display graft rejection, high-costed implantation, or chronic pain. Novel advances in tissue engineering presented promising options for this strain. Biomaterials for bone repair allow accelerated regeneration, osteoblastic cell activation, and enhanced bone remodeling. There is a wide range of biomaterials that are biocompatible, bioresorbable, and biodegradable and used for bone tissue regeneration, promoting osteoconductive and osteoinductive properties. The main aim of bone tissue engineering is to generate rapid and optimal functional bone regeneration through a combination of biomaterials, growth factors, cells, and various agents. Recently bone tissue engineering has been attracted to the use of bioactive glass scaffolds incorporated with polymers and patient-specific fabrication of the bone healing material by 3D bioprinting. There are promising future outcomes that were reported by several research. The present review provides an outlook for recent most common biomaterials in bone tissue engineering suggesting bone tissue engineering practices should have been proceeded to clinical application.
