Dendrimers are hyperbranched nanoparticle structures along with its surface modifications can to be used in dental biomaterials for biomimetic remineralisation of enamel and dentin. The review highlights the therapeutic applications of dendrimers in the field of dentistry. It addresses the possible mechanisms of enhancement of mechanical properties of adhesives and resins structure. Dendrimers due to its unique construction of possessing inner hydrophobic and outer hydrophilic structure can act as drug carrier for delivery of antimicrobial drugs for treatment of periodontal diseases and at peripheral dental implant areas. Dendrimers due to its hyperbranched structures can provides a unique drug delivery vehicle for delivery of a drug at specific site for sustained release for therapeutic effects. Thus, dendrimers can be one of the most important constituents which can be incorporated in dental biomaterials for better outcomes in dentistry.

“…The acetone extractable product was reduced by 85% after incorporation of low concentrations of dendritic additives. Thus it was observed that at cross-linking, highly globular and even low concentrations of dendrimer additions also can improve properties of dental composite resins [80].…”

“…The nature of the end groups in dendrimer materials, giving more of an effect than hyperbranched structures, significantly affect the glass transition temperature, miscibility, melt viscosity, solubility, and reactivity. The many different options of end groups impart a valuable tool to modify the properties and further development of more complex materials and films 22–24…”

A series of well‐defined methacrylate‐functionalized polyester dendrimers based on 2,2‐bis(methylol)propionic acid (bis‐MPA) has been synthesized divergently. The thermal properties and conversion of the methacrylate functional dendrimers are investigated along with the structure‐property relationship of networks composed of the methacrylate dendrimers and two commercially available trifunctional thiols, trimethylolpropane tri(3‐mercaptopropanoate) (TRIS) and ethoxylated trimethylolpropane tri(3‐mercaptopropanoate) (ETTMP). The thiol‐methacrylate reactions were conducted at room temperature, under ambient conditions, and triggered by UV light in the presence of a photoinitiator. Crosslinked films were obtained and characterized with respect to conversion (FT‐Raman) and thermal (DSC and TGA) properties. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

“…Paul et al 108 investigated the inuence of globular and highly branching 2,3-dihydroxybenzyl motif on material properties The solvent was evaporated using a stream of nitrogen followed by high vacuum. This modied resin was then blended with 3 parts by weight of silanated ller (Schott Glass GM27884, UF1.0, 3.2% silane) to produce samples containing 0.5%, 2.5%, 7.5%, and 12.5% dendritic 2,3-dihydroxybenzyl motif by weight.…”

“…The lower exural strengths observed at higher concentrations with dendrimer 5, in part due to the lower degree of polymerization (DP) that affords a weaker, less cross-linked composite. 108 They concluded that highly globular and highly cross-linking additives could be improved composite properties even at very low concentrations. Kawaguchi et al 109 investigated the mechanical properties of denture base resin cross-linked with methacrylated dendrimer (D12; Scheme 3).…”
