NANOTECHNOLOGY: SMALL IS THE NEXT BIG THING
Journal Title: IDA Ludhiana's Journal - Le Dentistry - Year 2017, Vol 1, Issue 3
Abstract
Nanotechnology actually represents the management of material with at least one measurement sized between 1 to 100 nanometers. For its practical applications, scientists must be able to manipulate individual atoms, produce replicators and assemblers which can work together like hands, to automatically construct products. Nanotechnology when integrated into dentistry gives rise to a new stream, i.e. nanodentistry.The purpose of this paperis to review nanodentistry in its current form categorizing broadly into bottom up approach and top dowm approach hence covering various applications of nanotechnology ranging from the nanorobots in nano anesthesia to its varied use in dental materials and implants.

A CROSS SECTIONAL STUDY AMONG DENTAL STUDENTS TO EVALUATE THE KNOWLEDGE ABOUT RADIATION PROTECTION AND PRACTICE IN DENTAL COLLEGES IN TAMIL NADU
Background: Radiological examination is an integral part of dentistry. The radiation doses used for Dental imaging seem to be low relatively to medical doses but the cumulative doses are high due to repeated examination....
Management of White Spot Lesions- A Review
There has been a paradigm shift from Black‟s “extension for prevention” to a minimal intervention approach in the recent time. A goal of modern dentistry is to manage enamel white spot lesions noninvasively and effective...
A REVIEW ARTICLE – NOT MERELY A COMPILATION OF DATA
Many a times, we have come across situations when we have to write an article that is to be submitted for publication in a journal. Although it should be a part of our daily life to report scientific content to cater our...
SURGICAL REMOVAL OF A PALATALLY PLACED IMPACTED MESIODENS: A CASE REPORT
Mesiodens are supernumerary teeth that may present either individually or as multiples (mesiodentes). They may appear either unilaterally or bilaterally, and most often do not erupt at all. They may remain locked in the...
