Abstract
Abstract: This study adopts a comprehensive approach to gathering relevant information. A thorough literature search included research articles, clinical studies, and reviews of the application of chitosan in dentistry. The selected sources were critically analyzed to identify key trends, outcomes, and advancements in the field. Chitosan, derived from chitin, has remarkable versatility in dental applications. It holds promise in multiple areas, including endodontic therapy, periodontal treatment, implant dentistry, oral surgery, and as an ingredient in restorative dental materials. Of note is the potential for dental pulp regeneration, which offers a promising avenue for tissue engineering in dentistry. This review revealed that the multifaceted properties of chitosan contribute to its ability to address a wide array of dental challenges, from root canal treatment to combating periodontal diseases and enhancing implant success rates. This review highlights the significant impact of chitosan on the reshaping of modern dental practices. Furthermore, by highlighting its versatile applications and potential benefits, this study contributes to our understanding of the transformative role of chitosan in dentistry. These findings emphasize the need for further research and exploration to unlock the full potential of chitosan, ultimately paving the way for innovative solutions to longstanding dental issues. As the capabilities of chitosan continue to evolve, it holds the potential to redefine dental care standards and establish itself as a cornerstone for future dental therapies.
