Abstract:In order to generate bactericidal effects in the oral cavity, several alternatives have been studied, including the use of silver nanoparticles but presents problems such as toxicity and low biocompatibility. From human-inspired systems, the antibacterial efficiency of the hydroxyapatite nanoparticles depends strongly on the type of composites and nanoparticles size. Several types of hydroxyapatite nanoparticles and their derivatives have received much attention for their antibacterial potential effect, includ… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
