Abstract
Nano-dentistry utilizes nanoparticles and nano-materials to revolutionize dental treatments, offering enhanced precision, durability, and effectiveness in oral health care solutions. A survey of 290 postgraduate dental students in Rajasthan revealed that 93.4% were knowledgeable about nano-dentistry, with over 80% expressing positive views on its applications in eight key areas. These findings indicate a strong awareness and positive perception towards nanotechnology in dental care. The study highlights the growing interest and underscores the need to integrate nanotechnology into dental curricula to maximize its benefits for oral health care.
