Periodontal Diseases and Recently Applied Nano-Technology: A Review Article

Abstract: Nowadays, nano-technology is a promising option for scientists to enhance dental conditions and provide new techniques to offer a more reliable and comfortable therapeutic pickups. In this regard, there are different methods to manufacture novel nano-structured dental materials, and also modern drug delivery techniques. In this review article, all our efforts are based on the recently nano-dental approaches closely linked to treat or prevent some common dental diseases including tooth erosion, tooth sensitivit… Show more

“…Taking Nano-dentistry as a promising innovation to improve dental conditions and oral hygiene has made researchers to find new methods which expand their knowledge and techniques to make new drug delivery systems and dental Nano-materials. The unique physico-chemical properties of silver nanoparticles when combined with the inhibitory capacity against the growth of microorganisms lead to an upsurge in the research on NPs and their potential application as antimicrobials (2) .…”

“…Yet, numerous definitions of nanotechnology have migrated and expanded with the passage of time. For instance, in [4], the definition is expressed as 'nanotechnology is the design, characterization, production and application of materials, devices and systems by controlling shape and size of the nanoscale'. While in [5], a slightly different nuance is given by 'the deliberate manipulation, precision placement, measurement, modelling and production of matter at the nanoscale in order to create materials, devices and systems with fundamentally new properties and functions'.…”
