“…Silk fibroin is a natural, low-cost, biodegradable and biocompatible polymer obtained from cocoons of Bombyx mori, Antheraea pernyi (tussah), Antheraea mylitta (tasar) and Philosamia ricini (eri). Being a natural polymer, it offers good permeation for oxygen and water but has a low compressive strength [44].…”

Trauma, congenital abnormalities and pathologies such as cancer can cause significant defects in craniofacial bone. Regeneration of the bone in the craniofacial area presents a unique set of challenges due to its complexity and association with various other tissues. Bone grafts and bone cement are the traditional treatment options but pose their own issues with regards to integration and morbidity. This has driven the search for materials which mimic the natural bone and can act as scaffolds to guide bone growth. Novel technology and computer aided manufacturing have allowed us to control material parameters such as mechanical strength and pore geometry. In this chapter, we elaborate the current status of materials and techniques used in fabrication of scaffolds for craniomaxillofacial bone tissue engineering and discuss the future prospects for advancements.
