Graphene-based Nanostructures for Future Dental Composites
Journal Title: Journal of Applied Material Science - Year 2025, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Dental composites are becoming more important as an alternative to traditional dental materials. However, their low mechanical properties have limited their widespread use. Recently, there has been a lot of research interest in using graphene-based nanostructures to improve the mechanical properties of dental composites. The challenge now is to ensure that these future dental composites are biocompatible. This review paper provides an overview of the latest research on the development of graphene-based dental composites, covering their structure, mechanical properties, and biocompatibility. It first gives a brief overview of dental composites and their structures, then introduces and compares different types of graphene-based nanostructures. Finally, the paper presents recent advances in developing graphene-based dental composites. The overview confirms that the mechanical properties of dental composites can be significantly improved with the incorporation of graphene-based nanosheets. However, further studies on other types of graphene-based nanostructures, specifically on the biocompatibility of these future dental composites, seem necessary.
