Nano
dentistry is the application of such technology within the dental field.
Using nanomaterials, nanorobots, and engineering, doctors and researchers have
already made huge strides in dentistry. There are countless new dental products
available, ranging from implants to oral
hygiene products, that utilize nano dentistry. Nanotechnology
is expected to change science, medicine, and dentistry forever.
Nano
dentistry can be used to diagnose, treat, and prevent oral and dental diseases.
It can also be used to relieve pain and preserve or improve dental health. For
example, saliva exosomes-based diagnostics have made it possible for doctors to
design biocompatible, antimicrobial dental implants – a revolutionary
development in the field. Since every disease starts at the molecular level, it
makes sense to attack it on that level.
Nano
dentistry can be used to assemble virtually any product using atomic building
blocks. The possibilities are endless, including nano-impressions,
nanoceramics, and nanocomposites.
Nanofillers are already being used to create a more precise impression of
patients’ teeth and gums. Nanofillers
have superior hydrophilic qualities, improved flow, and less spacing at dental
margins when compared to traditional
fillers. With regard to prosthodontics, nano-zirconia ceramic can be used
in place of traditional ceramics for tougher, longer-lasting,
corrosion-resistant dentures and crowns. Other applications that dental
researchers are currently looking into include:
