Abstract

Anti-caries strategies that based on the regulation of oral micro-ecology have recently drawn broad attention. Intelligent antibacterial materials have shown great potential for ecological anti-caries strategies, which can response to microenvironment of dental caries or external stimuli and inhibit cariogenic biofilms precisely. This technology could improve local anti-caries effect and help maintain oral micro-eubiosis. Here, we reviewed recent progress in intelligent anti-bacterial materials for dental caries. The future research direction was also prospected. We hope that by discussing about this new technology of prevention and treatment for dental caries, this review could provide ideas for the research on novel anti-caries materials.
