Nanotechnology in Medicine and Dentistry. Application of Nanotechnology in Medicine and Dentistry

      Аннотация: Nanotechnology operates at the nanoscale, below 100 nanometers, precisely manipulating material properties for diverse applications. This interdisciplinary field merges physics, chemistry, biology, materials science, and engineering to craft innovative solutions, with nanomaterials offering customization for specific purposes. In medicine, nanotech revolutionizes drug delivery, enhancing targeting, efficacy, and reducing side effects, especially in cancer treatment, where nanoparticles directly deliver chemotherapy, preserving healthy tissue. It also improves medical imaging resolution and enables rapid disease diagnostics through nanoscale sensors. In dentistry, nanomaterials like nanocomposite fillings enhance both durability and aesthetics, and nanotechnology contributes to tissue engineering and regenerative dentistry by creating scaffolds for tooth and gum regeneration while employing antibacterial nanoparticles in dental materials to reduce infection risks. The book predominantly explores nanotechnology's vital applications in medicine and dentistry.
