Copper Oxide Nanoparticles Application In Prosthodontics

Objectives: To assess current knowledge about copper oxide nanoparticles and their applications in prosthetic dental technology. Materials and Methods: On this topic, an electronic systematic review was conducted in various databases (Google Scholar research, Science Direct reports, PubMed studies, and Web of Science data), as well as a hand search of the scientific literature. From 2015 to 2022, published work was collected, analyses, and relevant articles were chosen for inclusion in this review. Copper oxide nanoparticles and their applications in prosthetic dental technology have been reported in several studies. More than 30 papers were chosen for this review based on their applicability. Results: The findings suggest that current knowledge is adequate to recommend copper oxide nanoparticles and their applications in prosthetic dental technology for routine laboratory use, with improvements in each of the current nano materials and procedures for prosthetic dental technology. Conclusion: Because of their physical and chemical properties, copper oxide nanoparticles are suitable for prosthetic restorations; however, careful processing methods, nano materials, laboratory skill, and a strict protocol for prosthetic restoration are required to improve the mechanical and physical properties.
