“…However, pulp regeneration is difficult and variable with respect to age. Dentin Odontoblast (present at the periphery of the pulp) stem cells have also been explored for the aforementioned purpose but illustrated a futile response in the clinical setup [ 78 , 79 ]. Hanafy et al explored two commonly used dental biomaterials, i.e., mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) and nano-HA, as odontogenic differentiation promotor results demonstrated significantly higher and upregulated expression of the characteristic genes for odontotomy differentiation, i.e., OPN, RUNX2, OCN, and Collagen1, in the case of treatment group than the control [ 80 ].…”

Nanotechnology utilizes the mechanics to control the size and morphology of the particles in the required nano range for accomplishing the intended purposes. There was a time when it was predominantly applied only to the fields of matter physics or chemical engineering, but with time, biological scientists recognized its vast benefits and explored the advantages in their respective fields. This extension of nanotechnology in the field of dentistry is termed ‘Nanodentistry.’ It is revolutionizing every aspect of dentistry. It consists of therapeutic and diagnostic tools and supportive aids to maintain oral hygiene with the help of nanomaterials. Research in nanodentistry is evolving holistically but slowly with the advanced finding of symbiotic use of novel polymers, natural polymers, metals, minerals, and drugs. These materials, in association with nanotechnology, further assist in exploring the usage of nano dental adducts in prosthodontic, regeneration, orthodontic, etc. Moreover, drug release cargo abilities of the nano dental adduct provide an extra edge to dentistry over their conventional counterparts. Nano dentistry has expanded to every single branch of dentistry. In the present review, we will present a holistic view of the recent advances in the field of nanodentistry. The later part of the review compiled the ethical and regulatory challenges in the commercialization of the nanodentistry. This review tracks the advancement in nano dentistry in different but important domains of dentistry.
