Abstract

Change is unavoidable, but advancement is a choice; because to breakthrough new technology, modern dentistry today has access to a wide range of excellent restorative materials. Biomimetic materials are frequently employed nowadays due to their biocompatibility and good physio-chemical characteristics. They can be used as long-lasting aesthetic and restorative materials, as well as cement, root repair materials, root canal sealers, and filling materials, thanks to their improved biocompatibility, high stress resistance, sealing ability, and antibacterial qualities. Since their qualities mimic natural tooth substance such as enamel or dentine, the concept of producing smart materials in dentistry has gained attention. These materials have the potential to provide novel and ground-breaking dental procedures with dramatically improved clinical outcomes. To eliminate the canal microbials, a variety of medicaments and irrigants are used. Many pathogens have developed resistance to the medications and irrigants that have been employed. Antibacterial nanoparticles have thus been developed to address this issue. Nano dentistry refers to the use of nanomaterials and dental nanorobots in diagnostic and therapy with the goal of improving overall oral health. We can have a better knowledge of these materials with the help of this review.
