Bone remodeling is a highly coordinated
physiological process orchestrated by cross talks
between various cells, pathways and signaling
molecules that are required to repair damaged
bone and maintain mineral homeostasis. Bone
regeneration is a complex physiological process
that aims to restore the original function and
architecture of bone lost in cases of trauma,
fracture, abnormal bone healing etc. To achieve
this goal of bone regeneration, various bone
substitutes like bone grafts, osteogenic stem cells,
osteoconductive scaffolds, growth factors, barrier
membranes have been used with mixed results.
