 Silver nanoparticles have been widely studied due to their antibacterial properties. Recent research has focused on incorporating them into biomaterials, such as dental materials, to prevent or reduce bacteria growth. Studies have shown that silver nanoparticles can be effective against microorganisms, but further research is needed to determine the optimal concentration and release rate. Additionally, the mechanical properties, cytotoxicity, and long-term effectiveness of silver nanoparticles must be evaluated before they are implemented in clinical settings.
