ABSTRACT

The world of nanomaterials comprises a wide range of intriguing materials with outstanding physical and chemical properties and characteristics. These materials include zero-dimensional nanopar-ticles or quantum dots, one-dimensional nanowires, nanorods,nanofibers, and nanotubes, and two-dimensional nanosheets .Widely regarded as nanomaterials with great potential applica-tions, nanofibers stand out among the rest of the nanomaterials.One of the most striking features of nanofibers is their exception-ally high surface area-to-volume ratio and high porosity, making them a robust and attractive candidate for many advanced appli-cations In particular, electrospun nanofibers have gained great attention in the field of tissue engineering due to the ease of fabrication and tailorability in pore size, scaffold shape, and fiber alignment. The delivery of biological active ingredients, factors, or drugs can achieve fast and supported regeneration. Nanofibers combined with inorganic ceramics, or polymers with nanoparticles can create functional materials for the speed up wound healing, or osseointegration processes The objective of this article is to review electrospun nanofibers in dentistry in the range from the process to the applications.
