Dr Shikha Suman, Dr Neha Gupta, Dr Promod Kumar Rathore, Dr Prashant Tyagi

Abstract


Its in the history that goodness and greatness does not depend on size. With the advancement in science we are moving towards the era of small sized particle with great surprises in small packets . if we talk about robot it’s a machine specifically designed to performs many tasks with precision at nano scale dimension.there is unlimited possibility and great potential of any basic particle ,on this basis nanodentistry will make it possible to maintain oral health through the help of nanomaterials, biotechnology, nanorobotics with precision and has created a boom in medical and dental field.The main aim of the present paper to mainly emphasise the contribution of nanotechnology in periodontics alomg with other fields.


Keywords


Nanotechnology,Nanorobotics, Periodontics application.
