The Role of Nanotechnology in Medicine and Dentistry - Minoo Shima

Medicine and dentistry are poised for a significant transformation thanks to nanotechnology. Tiny sensors can be crafted to detect disease biomarkers, yielding early and precise diagnoses. Drugs can be delivered directly to affected cells or tissues using nanoparticles, minimizing side effects and maximizing efficiency. Stronger, longer-lasting dental fillings and implants can be created with nanotechnology, along with novel teeth-whitening and cavity-prevention techniques. Bacteria responsible for tooth decay and gum disease can be specifically targeted and eliminated using nanoparticles, resulting in improved oral wellness. Custom-made dental implants and prosthetics designed to fit each patient's specific requirements are now feasible thanks to advances in nanotechnology. Ultimately, incorporating nanotechnology into medicine and dentistry holds great promise for enhancing patient outcomes and overall quality of life.
