Nano in prosthodontics

Dr Angurbala Dhal, Dr Tapan Kumar Patro

Abstract :

Nanotechnology is a new anch of science, which is still at developing stage. This is actually a process of miniaturization and control of material at molecular stage, normally between 1 to 100 nanometer scale as well as faication of material at this scale. It is highly multidisciplinary field; covering fields of colloidal science, device physics, supramolecular chemistry. Two main approaches top down and bottom up. At nanostage materials show highly different property than they show in macroscale enabling unique applications.Dentalmaterials manufactured by using nanotechnology has been used for prosthodontics namely nanocomposite,nanocomposite denture teeth, nanoadhesives,nanoimpression material,and nanodenture base material. Results are found to be encouraging. This article gives the scope and future of nano particles in dentistry.
