Description
Summary:Dental caries are the most common and widespread biofilm⁃dependent oral disease. Nanotechnology prom⁃ ises to be a useful strategy for dental caries management by combating caries⁃related bacteria, decreasing biofilm accu⁃ mulation, inhibiting demineralization and enhancing remineralization. Many potential applications of nanotechnology in the development of anticaries materials have recently been reported, especially for anticaries adhesive nanomaterials and anticaries nanofilled composite resins. This review summarizes the current progress in the application of functional nanoparticles in the following products: antibacterial nanomaterials, remineralizing nanomaterials and nanodrug delivery systems.
