Abstract

Distraction Osteogenesis (DO) is an emerging limb lengthening method for the reconstruction of the hard tissue and the surrounding soft tissue, in different human body zones. DO plays an important role in treating bone defects in Maxillofacial Reconstruction Applications (MRA) due to reduced side effects and better formed bone tissue compared to conventional reconstruction methods i.e. autologous bone graft, and alloplast implantation. Recently, varying techniques have been evaluated to enhance the characteristics of the newly formed tissues and process parameters. Promising results have been shown in assisting DO treatments while benefiting bone formation mechanisms by using physical stimulation techniques, including photonic, electromagnetic, electrical, and mechanical stimulation technique. Using assisted DO techniques has provided superior results in the outcome of the DO procedure compared to a standard DO procedure. However, DO methods, as well as assisting technologies applied during the DO procedure, are still emerging. Studies and experiments on developed solutions related to this field have been limited to animal and clinical trials. In this review paper, recent advances in physical stimulation techniques and their effects on the outcome of the DO treatment in MRA are surveyed. By studying the effects of using assisting techniques during the DO treatment, enabling an ideal assisted DO technique in MRA can be possible. Although mentioned techniques have shown constructive effects during the DO procedure, there is still a need for more research and investigation to be done to fully understand the effects of assisting techniques and advanced technologies for use in an ultimate DO procedure in MRA. © 2021
