Collagens are a large family of triple helical proteins which are found extensively throughout the body. They form the basic framework of the extracellular matrix providing support and form to cells and tissues. They are important for various functions such as angiogenesis, morphogenesis, cell adhesion, repair, and regeneration. In this article, we have focused our discussion to the structure, the synthesis, and the degradation of collagen followed by its distribution and function in various oral tissues.
