Hydroxyapatite nanoflbers as beneficial nanomaterial in dental sciences

摘要

Hydroxyapatite(HA)is recognized as an osteoconductive material with the ability of bone healing acceleration and close adaptation of bony tissue.The exceptional size of nanomaterials makes them attractive carriers for dental applications.Because of structural and compositional similarity of HA to bone,most of the recent researches involve the nanoscale applications of this material.Nanoflbers are perfect reinforcing materials compared with other particles and they are now presented with superior potential in the dental field.HA nanoflbers have been studied with hopeful results for dental sciences application.In this review,we have focused on the application of HA nanoflbers such as tissue regeneration,dental resins,dental implant and treatment of periodontitis in dentistry.
