Abstract
Background: In recent years, barium titanate (BaTiO3) has demonstrated advancements in the field of dentistry among dental ceramics. This ceramic substance has piezoelectric qualities that are comparable to those of bone, which is crucial for osseointegration. The biomedical field has made extensive use of barium titanate for its affordability, chemical stability, and non-toxicity. The use of barium titanate in dentistry is encouraged by the fact that many widely used metal alloys have unsightly hues and exhibit chemical interactions in the mouth cavity. Because BaTiO3-based ceramics are more corrosion-resistant, have better color matching that improves esthetics, stronger, and have better radiopacity than traditional biomaterials, their use has grown.
Purpose: This review will cover the production techniques, mechanism of action, phases, and dental uses of BaTiO3.
Conclusion: Barium titanate exhibited encouraging qualities for dental uses due to its antibacterial, biocompatible and piezoelectric action.
