Abstract

Dentistry is revolutionised by introduction of newer materials and orthodontics is not an exception of it. Nanomaterials in orthodontics are now a days used from bonding materials to orthodontic wires. They not only modify the property of orthodontic bonding and enhancing the bond strength to decreasing friction of wires by nano coating reducing the force and thereby reducing side effects. Therefore this review article is aimed at covering all the nanomaterials uses in orthodontics.
