Smart materials in dentistry

Abstract

Smart materials are the result of recent developments in dental materials. One of the most enduringly useful and dependable materials is bioactive material. Since there has never been a material in dentistry that is perfect in every way and satisfies all standards for a superlative material, smart materials have been developed in an attempt to find the perfect material, which could eventually lead to smart dentistry. Materials classified as "smart" have the ability to modify their properties under regulated conditions in response to various stimuli, including pH, temperature, moisture, stress, and electric or magnetic fields. When a substance detects a signal from its surroundings and responds to it in a practical, dependable, repeatable, and typically reversible way, that material is said to exhibit smart behavior. The ability of intelligent behavior to revert to its initial condition even in the absence of a stimulus is one of its most crucial characteristics. These qualities are useful in a number of industries, including dentistry.

Creating an Innovative Business Model for the Performance of Commercial Dental Clinics

“…The high clinical efficacy of digital methods requires economists, researchers, and specialists in the field of healthcare organizations to analyze the economic efficiency of the production process digitalization in the trajectory of economic development of a CDC [10,11], which will provide the managerial decision-maker with scientifically based information about the necessary material costs for the purchase of necessary equipment (3D printers, milling machines, and other dental instruments and equipment) [12], and capital investment in the creation of a CDO and ensuring the necessary trajectory of its economic development. Another significant trend in the research is the factor analysis of CDO costs and the development of effective models for the process management of CDO financial flows using the achievements of modern economic science and mathematical programming methods [13].…”
