Role of nanotechnology in regeneration of pulpo-dentinal complex

Nanotechnology has completely revolutionized the field of Dentistry with enormous applications and opened up ample research opportunities in the field. Most research activities in Endodontics are performed in pursuit of regeneration of pulpo-dentinal complex. As in other fields, nanotechnology has ameliorated regenerative Endodontics and has brought about considerable promise to the field. Application of nanotechnology could even increase thesuccess rate of regeneration owing to biomimetic modifications in stem cells and scaffolds, which may soon be translated to clinical practice. This review highlights the important research activities in regeneration of dental pulp in collaboration with nanotechnology.
