Application of Nanobiomaterials in Endodontics
Journal Title: Biomedical Journal of Scientific & Technical Research (BJSTR) - Year 2017, Vol 1, Issue 7
Abstract
Nowadays, the application of Nanobiomaterials in dentistry is increasing. The combination of biomaterials with nanotechnology leads to the term of “Nano biomaterial”. Nanotechnology aims to control over material properties at nanoscale and over the precision and sensitivity of various tools and devices in different technologies. In the endodontic science, Nanobiomaterials are utilized in different aspects such as: instruments and materials modifications, improvement of root canal disinfection and obturation, root repair materials, local anesthesia and repair and regeneration of pulpal tissue. The aim of the present study was to reviews the research findings and future possible applications of Nanobiomaterials and nanotechnology in endodontics.Dental pulp is a unique low compliance tissue with specific characters different from similar loose connective tissues. Its encasement within the relatively rigid and unyielding dentinal walls, its particular rich neurovascular supply, a powerful immune response and scarcity of collateral circulation may lead to rapid degeneration and necrosis [1]. Dental caries, traumatic injuries and iatrogenic procedures could affect the health of dental pulp and trigger immune response within the pulpo-dentin complex [2,3].
