Course Description: Nanotechnology and its medical applications have led to the emergence of nanomedicine and nanodentistry. Nanodentistry will enable oral health maintenance through the use of nanomaterials, biotechnology, including tissue engineering and nanorobotics. Nanorobotic functions can be controlled by executing pre-programmed instructions to respond to local sensing stimuli. This course aims to introduce students to the current and future applications of nanotechnology in dentistry.
