AbstractNo single scientific field can generate the ideal method of engineering bone. However, through collaboration and expansion of programs in bone tissue engineering, the right combination of materials, cells, growth factors, and methodology will come together for each clinical situation such that harvesting bone grafts will become obsolete. This article reviews the need for engineered bone and provides a historical perspective of bone engineering research, current research efforts, and the future direction of this work.
