Definitive Dental Applications of Graphene Based Dental Biomaterial

Abstract

Graphene was first identified in 2004, and it has remarkable properties. Atoms of Graphene are very tightly bonded so, like carbon nanotubes, which makes it super-strong, even more, potent than diamond. Moreover, it has good Heat conductivity, Electrical conductivity, and optical properties. Application in the dental field, especially in prosthodontics, includes the addition to Polymethylmethacrylate and improving its properties. In removable and implant prosthodontics in the last five years, this biomaterial had evoked immense research interest.
