Keywords:
Dental Prosthetics, Nanoparticles, Dental Materials, Biocompatibility, OsseointegrationAbstract
The incorporation of nanoparticles into dental prosthetics has opened up new avenues for improving the biocompatibility, durability, and aesthetics of these devices. This narrative review provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of research on nanoparticle-based dental prosthetics, highlighting their benefits, challenges, and opportunities. The review covers the applications of nanoparticles in implant coatings, dental composites, and dentin bonding agents, as well as the challenges associated with nanoparticle toxicity, lack of standardization, and high production costs. Despite these challenges, the future of nanoparticles in dental prosthetics looks promising, with potential applications in the development of novel dental materials with enhanced properties. This review aims to provide a valuable resource for researchers, clinicians, and industry professionals working in the field of dental materials and nanotechnology.
