Hydrogels are widely used because of their strong water absorption, adhesion and biocompatibility. This article briefly analyzes the application of hydrogel dressing, type I collagen hydrogel and hydrogel in oral and bone tissues, and puts forward the existing problems, the future development trend and the prospect of its development.
