Description
Roma and Shreya Hegde review what graphene-based materials could do for dentistry, in a 2023 paper. Graphene is a one-atom-thick carbon sheet with striking strength and germ-fighting traits. Dentistry has begun testing it for implants, fillings, and tissue repair. The review first explains how these materials are made and how their forms differ.
It then gathers the dental uses reported so far, from coatings to scaffolds. Benefits claimed include toughness, body compatibility, and antibacterial action. Hurdles remain, from safety questions to manufacturing cost. The authors close by mapping where the field might go next. Their survey aims to steer researchers toward the most promising dental applications of this much-hyped material.
