Applications in Dentistry
Nano Technology and its Applications in
Dentistry
Dentistry is the branch of medicine that deals with diagnosing,
preventing, and treating diseases and conditions of the oral cavity.
Nanotechnology is the field of science that deals with the manipulation of
matter on an atomic and molecular scale. Nanotechnology has the
potential to revolutionize dentistry by providing new tools and techniques
for the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of oral diseases.
