The distinct physicochemical and biological characteristics of metal and metal oxide nanoparticles have attracted considerable interest in various branches of dentistry as potential solutions to the problems associated with conventional dental treatments and to promote human health. Many scientists have been interested in nanoparticles for endodontic applications in the last several decades. Endodontic treatment is more likely to be successful when metal and metal oxide nanoparticles are used. Endodontic therapies often make use of nanoparticles made of metals and metal oxides. The effect of nano metals and metal oxide in endodontic treatments has not been published or is not widely available in the literature. Therefore, this paper aims to review recent studies on the development and application of some important metal and metal oxide nanoparticles such as silver and silver oxide, zinc oxide, zirconium oxide, magnesium oxide, titanium dioxide and other metal oxide nanoparticles in endodontic therapeutic procedures.
金属和金属氧化物纳米颗粒独特的物理化学和生物学特性，在牙科的各个领域引起了相当大的关注，有望解决与传统牙科治疗相关的问题并促进人类健康。在过去几十年里，许多科学家对用于牙髓病治疗的纳米颗粒很感兴趣。使用金属和金属氧化物纳米颗粒时，牙髓病治疗更有可能成功。牙髓病治疗常常利用由金属和金属氧化物制成的纳米颗粒。纳米金属和金属氧化物在牙髓病治疗中的作用尚未发表，或在文献中未广泛可得。因此，本文旨在综述一些重要的金属和金属氧化物纳米颗粒，如银和氧化银、氧化锌、氧化锆、氧化镁、二氧化钛及其他金属氧化物纳米颗粒在牙髓病治疗程序中的开发与应用的近期研究。
