Abstract :
Nanotechnology is the advance science exploiting phenomena and direct manipulation of materials on the nanoscale. It can bring tremendous changes in the fields of medicine and dentistry. In dentistry, there is widespread recognition of microbial as the contributory factor for dental infection. Treatment of infected root canals presents with a significant challenge of bacterial persistence after treatment. Antibacterial Nanoparticles based treatment can improve the antibiofilm efficacy. A day may soon come when Nano dentistry will succeed in maintaining near-perfect oral health through the aid of nanorobotics and nanomaterials.
