Abstract
The demineralization of dental hard tissue imposes considerable health and economic burdens worldwide, but an optimal method that can repair both the chemical composition and complex structures has not been developed. The continuous development of nanotechnology has created new opportunities for the regeneration and repair of dental hard tissue. Increasingly studies have reported that nanomaterials (NMs) can induce and regulate the biomimetic mineralization of dental hard tissue, but few studies have examined how they are involved in the different stages, let alone the relevant mechanisms of action. Besides their nanoscale dimensions and excellent designability, NMs play a corresponding role in the function of the raw materials for mineralization, mineralized microenvironment, mineralization guidance, and the function of mineralized products. This review comprehensively summarizes the advantages of NMs and examines the specific mineralization mechanisms. Design strategies to promote regeneration and repair are summarized according to the application purpose of NMs in the oral cavity, and limitations and development directions in dental hard tissue remineralization are proposed. This review can provide a theoretical basis to understand the interaction between NMs and the remineralization of dental hard tissue, thereby optimizing design strategy, rational development, and clinical application of NMs in the field of remineralization.

Abstract
Achieving a desired whitening effect through short treatments without using peroxide and without compromising the integrity of tooth enamel remains a challenge in teeth whitening. Here, we developed a highly safe and efficient photodynamic therapy (PDT) strategy based on visible light-activated bismuth oxyiodide nanoparticles for nondestructive tooth whitening. The Bi7O9I3 nanoparticles (NPs) exhibited efficient photocatalytic activity owing to their narrow band gap, effectively harnessing the broad spectrum of visible light to generate ample electrons and holes. Meanwhile, the presence of oxygen vacancies, low oxidation state Bi3+ and the high specific surface area endow Bi7O9I3 NPs with effective electron-hole separation ability and potent redox potentials. Empowered by these characteristics, Bi7O9I3 NPs effectively catalyzed O2 into radicals (O2•-), facilitating the degradation of dental surface pigment molecules for tooth whitening. Concurrently, they eradicated oral bacteria and bacterial biofilms adhering to tooth surfaces, thereby having a positive effect on the effectiveness of tooth whitening. This PDT strategy with Bi7O9I3 NPs shows broad application prospects in tooth whitening.

Abstract
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) causes great health hazards to society because most antibiotics are ineffective. Photodynamic treatment (PDT) has been proposed to combat MRSA due to the advantage of imaging-guided no-drug resistance therapy. However, the traditional photosensitizers for PDT are limited by aggregation-caused quenching for imaging and low photodynamic antibacterial efficiency. In this work, we synthesize a new aggregation-induced emission (AIE) photosensitizer (APNO), which can ultrafast distinguish between Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria within 3 s by AIE-active photosensitizer imaging. Meanwhile, APNO can generate antibacterial reactive oxygen species under light irradiation, which holds potential for antibacterial PDT. Then, APNO is loaded by PHEAA hydrogel to obtain a highly efficient photodynamic hydrogel (APNO@gel). In vitro results show complete inhibition of MRSA by APNO@gel under lower-power light irradiation. Transcriptome analysis is performed to investigate antibacterial mechanism of APNO@gel. Most importantly, APNO@gel also exhibits significant inhibition and killing ability of MRSA in the MRSA wound infection model, which will further promote rapid wound healing. Therefore, the photodynamic hydrogel provides a promising strategy toward MRSA ultrafast imaging and killing.

Abstract
The main goal of bone tissue engineering research is to replace the allogenic and autologous bone graft substitutes that can promote bone repair. Owing to excellent biocompatibility and osteoconductivity, hydroxyapatite is in extensive research and high demand for both medical and non-medical applications. Although various methods have been developed for the synthesis of hydroxyapatite, in the present study we have shown the use of nanosecond laser energy in the wet precipitation method of nano-hydroxyapatite (nHAP) synthesis without using ammonium solution or any other chemicals for pH maintenance. Here, the present study aimed to fabricate the nanohydroxyapatite using a nanosecond laser. The X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy have confirmed the hydroxyapatite formation under laser irradiation in less time without aging. A transmission electron microscopy confirmed the nano size of synthesized nHAP, which is comparable to conventional nHAP. The length and width of the laser-assisted nHAP were found to be in the range of 50-200 nm and 15-20 nm, respectively, at various laser parameters. The crystallite size obtained by Debye Scherrer formulae was found to be in the range of ∼ 16-36 nm. In addition, laser-assisted nHAP based composite cryogel (nanohydroxyapatite/gelatin/collagen I) was synthesized and impregnated with bioactive molecules (bone morphogenic protein and zoledronic acid) that demonstrated significant osteogenic potential both in vitro in cell experiment and in vivo rat muscle pouch model (abdomen and tibia muscles). Dual-energy X-ray analysis, micro-CT, and histological analysis confirmed ectopic bone regeneration. Micro-CT based histomorphometry showed a higher amount (more than 10-fold) of mineralization for animal groups implanted with composite cryogels loaded with bioactive molecules compared to only composite cryogels groups. Our findings thus demonstrate a controlled and rapid synthetic method for the synthesis of nHAP with various physical, chemical, and biological properties exhibited as comparable to conventionally synthesized nHAP.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Dental biofilm is one of the most prevalent diseases in humans, which is mediated by multiple microorganisms. Globally, half of the human population suffers from dental biofilm and its associated diseases. In recent trends, nano-formulated drugs are highly attractive in the treatment of dental biofilms. However, the impact of different types of nanodrugs on the dental biofilm and its associated pathogens have not been published till date. Thus, this review focuses on the recent updates, feasibility, mechanisms, limitations, and regulations of nanodrugs applications in the prevention and eradication of dental biofilm. STUDY SELECTION, DATA AND SOURCES A systematic search was conducted in PubMed/Google Scholar/Scopus over the past five years covering the major keywords "nanodrugs, metallic nanoparticles, metal oxide nanoparticles, natural polymers, synthetic polymers, biomaterials, dental biofilm, antibiofilm mechanism, dental pathogens", are reviewed in this study. Nearly, 100 scientific articles are selected in this relevant topic published between 2019 and 2023. Data from the selected studies dealing with nanodrugs used for biofilm treatment was qualitatively analyzed. CONCLUSIONS The nanodrugs such as silver nanoparticles, gold nanoparticles, selenium nanoparticles, zinc oxide nanoparticles, copper oxide nanoparticles, titanium oxide nanoparticles, hydroxyapatite nanoparticles and these inorganic nanoparticles incorporated polymer-based nanocomposites, organic/inorganic nanoparticles mediated antimicrobial photodynamic therapy exhibits an excellent antibacterial and antibiofilm activity towards dental pathogens. Finally, this review highlights that bioinspired nanodrugs will be very useful to control the dental biofilm and its associated diseases. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Microbial influence on the oral environment is unavoidable; therefore, curing such dental biofilms and pathogens is essential for the impactful reflection of applying biocompatible treatments. In this direction, the current review explains the demand for the nanodrug in inhibiting biofilms for the effective exploration of employing treatments.

Abstract
Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) had aroused tremendous attention in photodynamic antibacterial therapy due to its excellent energy band structure and appealing optical performance. Nevertheless, the superfast electron-hole recombination and dense biofilm formation abated its photodynamic antibacterial effect. To this end, a nanoheterojunction was synthesized via in-situ growing copper sulfide (CuS) on g-C3N4 (CuS@g-C3N4). On the one hand, CuS could form Fermi level difference with g-C3N4 to accelerate carrier transfer and thus facilitate electron-hole separation. On the other hand, CuS could respond near-infrared light to generate localized thermal to disrupt biofilm. Then the CuS@g-C3N4 nanoparticle was introduced into the poly-l-lactide (PLLA) scaffold. The photoelectrochemistry results demonstrated that the electron-hole separation efficiency was apparently enhanced and thereby brought an approximate sevenfold increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. The thermal imaging indicated that the scaffold possesses a superior photothermal effect, which effectively eradicated the biofilm by disrupting its extracellular DNA and thereby facilitated to the entry of ROS. The entered ROS could effectively kill the bacteria by causing protein, K+, and nucleic acid leakage and glutathione consumption. As a consequence, the scaffold displayed an antibacterial rate of 97.2% and 98.5% against E. coli and S. aureus, respectively.

Abstract
Dental caries is a chronic, progressive disease caused by plaque, influenced by multiple factors and can damage the hard tissues of the teeth. In severe cases, it can also lead to the onset and development of other oral diseases, seriously affecting patients' quality of life. The creation of effective biomaterials for the prevention and treatment of dental caries has become one of the relentless goals of many researchers, with a focus on inhibiting the production of cariogenic plaque and retaining beneficial bacteria, guiding and promoting the reconstruction of dental hard tissues, and delaying the progression of existing caries. Chitosan is a natural cationic polymer extracted from the shells of crustaceans and shellfish. Since its discovery, chitosan has shown to have various biological functions such as antibacterial, biomimetic mineralization, drug delivery, etc., making it one of the most promising biopolymers for new caries prevention and materials of prostheses. Therefore, this article provides an overview of the anti-caries applications of chitosan, which mainly covers the basic research on the application of chitosan in caries prevention and treatment since 2010, with a focus on categorizing and summarizing the following characteristics of chitosan as a caries prevention material, including its antibacterial effect, biomimetic mineralization effect and delivery ability of caries prevention drugs and vaccines. It also explores the limitations of current research on chitosan as a caries prevention biomaterial and the difficulties that need to be focused on and overcome in the future to provide theoretical reference for the clinical implementation of chitosan as a caries prevention biomaterial.
