“…[ 25 ] Common chemical crosslinking techniques, including photopolymerization, enzymatic‐induced crosslinking, oxime crosslinking, Michael‐type addition, and Schiff base formation, are used in the fabrication of polymeric networks. [ 26 ] These permanent crosslinks are difficult to break down and remodel once formed. [ 23 ] The limited dynamic properties confine their applications in tissue engineering and cell culture.…”

Oral diseases are a prevalent global health problem that are primarily characterized by microbial infections, inflammation, and destruction of oral tissues. Maintaining good oral health is essential for a high quality of life, but the effective treatment of oral diseases and the regeneration of lost dental tissues remain challenging. Hydrogels have emerged as promising biomaterials in modern dental medicine. Their 3D network structures, high water content, good biocompatibility, and various bioactivities enable them to serve as drug delivery platforms, antimicrobial materials, tissue regeneration scaffolds, and biosensors. This review provides an overview of the formation mechanisms, structures, and functions of hydrogels, and highlights their latest applications in treating oral and maxillofacial diseases, such as periodontal diseases, caries, pulp diseases, oral cancer, and mucosal diseases.

“…To meet the unique requirement of hydrogel implantation therapy, the hydrogel materials need to be compatible with minimally invasive surgical approaches with biocompatibility, mechanical properties, and filling properties. Suitable hydrogels can be classified by their composition, 51 such as polymeric hydrogels, polymer-cell complex hydrogels, polymer-cytokine complex hydrogels, and polymer-protein complex hydrogels (Figure 1), playing a role in reducing myocardial cell injury, simulating natural cytoplasmic matrix, enhancing vascular growth and heart regeneration. 52 The focus of this review is to explore the methods for the present investigations of the hydrogel for HF treatment.…”

Heart failure (HF) is an irreversible disease characterized by the reducing capacity of blood supply as a consequence of cardiomyocyte death and deteriorated fibrosis. There is a lack of effective treatment for heart failure other than a heart transplant, and thus significant resources have been dedicated to developing functional materials for cardiac tissue engineering. Implanting hydrogels in the myocardium near the myocardial infarction area can preserve cardiac function and slow the remodeling that leads to HF by providing mechanical support to the ventricular wall. Nevertheless, few reviews have been published for this promising HF treatment. Herein, we briefly discuss the classification and existing conventional treatments for HF and provide an overview of recent functional hydrogels designed for cardiac repair after myocardial infarction, including polymeric hydrogels, polymer‐cell complex hydrogels, polymer‐cytokine complex hydrogels, and polymer‐protein complex hydrogels. Key challenges and future directions for advanced hydrogels have also been discussed.

“…Guar gum (GG), a biodegradable natural galactomannan extracted from the guar bean endosperm, consists of the mannose backbone linked by b-1,4glycosidic bonds and the galactose side chain attached to the backbone by a-1,6-glycosidic bonds. 16 It has been deemed safe and can be applied in various industries, such as food, cosmetics, medicines and so on. 17 At the same time, compared with most natural polysaccharides including cellulose, chitosan and carrageenan, guar gum can quickly develop a full viscosity potential in cold water and does not need to be heated to dissolve.…”
