Silver nanoparticles: Harnessing nanotechnology for enhanced antimicrobial efficacy in contemporary dental practice
Riya Dave
Abstract:This review article provides an in-depth exploration of the role of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in the field of dentistry, focusing on their remarkable antimicrobial properties and versatile applications. AgNPs have shown significant promise in dentistry, exhibiting potent antimicrobial efficacy against various oral pathogens, bacteria, and biofilms. Studies have compared AgNPs with conventional antimicrobial agents, highlighting their bacteriostatic and bactericidal effects, especially at lower concentration… Show more
