Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles May Help Prevent Biofilm Formation and Caries

Dimensions of Dental Hygiene

With funding from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research, scientists have bioengineered a nanoparticle that might provide an alternative treatment to help prevent caries, rather than treat lesions once they form. This new cerium oxide nanoparticle therapy could potentially be applied in dental clinics.
