| − | <br /> | + | <br />A novel nanosystem developed by Anil Kishen, a professor in the University of Toronto’s Faculty of Dentistry, shows promising results in promoting healing and regeneration by host tissues following root canals. |
| − | + | Kishen’s research was published recently in the medical journal Nanomedicine: Nanotechology, Biology and Medicine. | |
| − | + | The current treatment for root canals focuses on reducing bacterial loads. After instrumentation and irrigation, however, the canals of the tooth are filled with synthetic materials – with the possibility that the infecting bacteria colonies are not fully eliminated. That can leave the tooth susceptible to persistent infections. <small>([https://www.utoronto.ca/news/u-t-researcher-develops-nanosystem-promotes-regeneration-after-root-canals More])</small> | |
