The human population is aging with a consequent rise in the incidence of hard tissue disease. Thus there is a rising requirement for innovative hard tissue engineering approaches. Combining advancements in nanotechnology and tissue engineering has resulted in the evolution of nanostructured materials for tissue engineering, which are proffered as a promising avenue for enhanced and less invasive repair and regeneration of damaged hard tissues. In this chapter, the architectural and molecular intricacies of hard tissue are examined, with the ultimate goal being successful biomimicry of this tissue for enhanced regeneration and repair. Subsequently, the diverse biomaterials and approaches for hard tissue engineering are exemplified through analysis of specific investigations for design of nanostructured materials for hard tissue engineering scaffolds.
