Nanotechnology is such a new and exciting area of science. It is an emerging field with a significant potential to yield new generation of technologically advanced clinical tools and devices for oral health-care. Nanotechnology is a new approach in dentistry. By providing novel methods, it increases efficacy, accuracy and speed of treatment while decreasing costs. Nano-enabled technologies thus provides an alternative and superior approach to assess the onset or progression of diseases, to identify targets for treatment interventions as well as the ability to design more biocompatible, microbe resistant dental materials.Use of nanotechnology in various fields is an evolving process and slowly but surely it is impacting restorative dentistry and endodontics in a positive way. It is sure to enhance the various prevailing dental procedures and more and more materials and procedures may be based on it in the future.
