Abstract

Graphene has been discovered to have unique properties that could revolutionize the world. The reason graphene is such a beneficial material is due to its 2D like nature and short/strong bonds. Biomedical researchers have begun to make use of the properties of graphene. Its derived substances open a completely new research path in tissue engineering as well as regenerative dentistry and medicine. This paper aims to review and present the useful properties of graphene and its revolution in the era of modern dentistry.
