There are two possible mechanisms for size influenced consequences of nanomaterials in preventive dentistry: one, interaction with bacterial attachment and biofilm establishment, two, the effect on de-and remineralization. As the process of demineralization begins at nanolevel, it is imperative to provide nanosized units for optimized remineralization. This is applicable for particle size-related interactions with bacteria and it's bacterial, as the nanoparticles are more effective than microparticles. Many preparations have been developed, many of them are in the experimental state, and a few are already available. Nanoparticles for major tooth repair may progress through various stages of technological development. Many naniparticles are made available which help in teeth repair and regeneration process. This article is a review on nanomaterials for remineralisation. Which are Nano hydroxy apetite, Nano calcium fluoride, Beta Tricalcium Phosphate, nano Bioglass, Nano CCP-ACP and nano Bioinert zirconia.
