Abstract:
Graphene is a two-dimensional single layer with hexagonal configuration. Graphene was building block of graphitic carbon molecule include graphite, diamond, nanoribbons and fullerenes. Its potential applications including various biomedical applications such as drug delivery carriers, imaging agents, biosensors, bimolecular analysis, and tissue engineering scaffolds. Graphene oxide facilitates connection with various materials including polymers, biomolecules, DNA, and proteins. Graphene, when combined with other compounds, showed improved synergistic antimicrobial, antibiofilm, and antiadhesive properties. Graphene is the most biocompatible scaffolds for Mesenchymal stem cells adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation. Application of graphene inhibits periodontal pathogens responsible for periodontitis. Other application includes tissue engineering, coated dental implants, barrier membrane, irrigant in endodontics, adhesive in restorative dentistry. This article aimed to focus on importance of graphene, antibacterial effects and tissue engineering scaffolds.
