Abstract

Graphene-based materials have gained extensive attention in the field of research seeking novel materials for biomedicine, dentistry, and implantology due to their unique physicochemical properties, high strength, thermal stability, electrical conductivity, chemical purity, large surface area, and the possibility of functionalization. Graphene-based nanomaterial can be used for various applications, such as antimicrobial agent, biocompatible coatings and anticorrosion, drug delivery, and therapy. This chapter summarizes the basic properties of graphene and the latest progress based on current knowledge. The comprehensive review of graphene-based materials and their possible applications focusing on dentistry and dental implantology is described.
