Nanotechnology in Prosthodontics

This book explores the revolutionary role of nanotechnology in prosthodontics, highlighting how nanoscale science enhances dental materials, treatment techniques, and patient outcomes. It traces the history and principles of nanotechnology, explains the unique properties of nanomaterials, and reviews their applications in ceramics, resins, adhesives, impression materials, maxillofacial prostheses, and implantology. By improving strength, durability, esthetics, antimicrobial properties, and biocompatibility, nanotechnology addresses long-standing challenges in prosthodontics. The text also discusses current limitations, research hurdles, and future prospects, positioning nanodentistry as a promising frontier in oral rehabilitation and material science.
