Abstract

Monolayer cultures and animal models face limitations in accurately evaluating cellular oral mucosal behavior. Oral disease modeling using tissue-engineered oral mucosa replicates the complexity of human tissue, offering improved opportunities for studying molecular mechanism. Therefore, it is important to highlight recent developments in oral mucosal organoids in wound healing, carcinogenesis, and other investigation models. This review article performed a literature search and carefully selected and summarized articles from PubMed and Scopus data base to get information on oral mucosal organoids in various fields. The keywords were: “organotypic” OR “organoid” OR “3D” AND “oral mucosa” AND “model”. The search yielded 31 articles on oral mucosal organoids, which addressed various cell sources, scaffolds and techniques that can be applied to develop organoids to elucidate a certain mechanism of action. Enhancement in extracellular matrix properties and incorporation of immune and/or other oral cells could provide better understanding of oral mucosa molecular responses.
