bridges the gap left by many tissue engineering and stem cell biology titles to highlight the significance of translational research in this field in the medical sciences.

It compiles basic developmental biology with keen focus on cell and matrix biology, stem cells with relevance to tissue engineering biomaterials including nanotechnology and current applications in various disciplines of dental sciences; viz., periodontology, endodontics, oral & craniofacial surgery, dental implantology, orthodontics & dentofacial orthopedics, organ engineering and transplant medicine.

In addition, it covers research ethics, laws and industrial pitfalls that are of particular importance for the future production of tissue constructs.

• Diligently covers all the aspects related to basic science, research, clinical application and commercialization
• Provides detailed descriptions of new, modern technologies, fabrication techniques employed in the fields of stem cells, biomaterials and tissue engineering research including details of latest advances in nanotechnology
• Includes a description of stem cell biology with details focused on oral and craniofacial stem cells and their potential research application throughout medicine
• Print book is available and black and white, and the ebook is in full color
