Sonochemical production of nanoparticle metal oxides for potential use in dentistry
journal contribution
posted on 2023-06-09, 04:17 authored by James StubbingJames Stubbing, Judith Brown, Gareth J PriceTwo types of ultrasonic instruments used in dentistry have been compared with a sonochemical horn for the production of copper oxide and zinc oxide nanoparticles. The nanoparticles can be produced from benign reagents using dental instruments as the source of sonochemical enhancement. The process has been operated in resin models of teeth in a preliminary exploration of the potential of the method for enhancing procedures such as root canal surgery. The technique is potentially useful but further work is needed for a full assessment of using in-situ generated nanoparticles as an aid to disinfection during some types of dental surgery.
