The integration of nanomaterials in prosthodontics has garnered significant attention due to their potential to enhance the properties of dental materials. This narrative review explores the research and application of nanomaterials in prosthodontics, focusing on metals, ceramics, and resin-based materials.A comprehensive search of PubMed and Google Scholar databases was conducted for peer-reviewed articles published between 2000-2020, using keywords related to nanoparticle synthesis and incorporation in dental materials. Additionally, relevant journals were hand-searched. A total of 46 articles meeting inclusion criteria were identified for review.Studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of nanomaterials in improving the performance of dental implants. Surface modification techniques, such as anodization, have been utilized to create nanometer-scale features on implant surfaces, promoting osteoblast adhesion and osseointegration. Similarly, nanoceramic materials show promise in enhancing the mechanical properties of dental ceramics, including increased strength and toughness. In conclusion, the review underscores the promising role of nanomaterials in advancing various aspects of prosthodontics. Studies have demonstrated that nanoscale modifications, such as anodization and nanophase formulations, enhance osteoblast adhesion on implant surfaces, suggesting potential benefits for implant integration and osseointegration.
