Abstract:
Because of their unique neno-structures and outstanding mechanical,thermodynamic,and magnetic properties,carbon nanotubes have attracted intensive interests in the field of stomatology,especially in the research of composite materials,such as toughened ceramic,reinforced polymethyl methacrylate,etc.In this paper,the current and prospective applications of carbon nanotubes in stomatology were reviewed.Also some comments were made on the existing problems and prospects of the relative research were discussed.
