But due to the emergence of antibiotics the use of silver has been declined. Several pathogenic bacteria have developed resistance against various antibiotics. This has led to reemergence of silver. Recently nano science and nanotechnology are gaining tremendous popularity. The small size of nanoparticles provides larger surface area and hence increases the effectiveness of nanoparticles. Silver nanoparticles are used in medical and dental applications ranging from silver based wound dressings, silver coated medicinal devices like catheters, endotrachial tubes, bone cements, in gels, lotions, cosmetics, in dental restorative materials, endodontic cements, dental implants caries inhibitory agents, and in prosthesis. The purpose of this article is to discuss briefly the potential role of silver nano particles in endodontic therapy.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><custom2><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Council of Scientific &amp;amp; Industrial Research (CSIR) - India&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom2><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1.96</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sahu, Puspanjali</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shimpi, Jayesh</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lee, Han Ju</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lee, T.

This systematic investigation was performed using ligands possessing one, two, or three thiol moieties as ligands/digestive ripening agents. Our results clearly establish that among the different ligands, those that are monodentate and the use of temperatures in the range of 60 °C and 120 °C offer the best conditions for digestive ripening. In addition, when digestive ripening was carried out at lower temperatures (e.g., 60 °C), the nanoparticle size increased as the number of thiol groups per ligand increased. However, in the case of ligands possessing two and three thiol moieties when they are heated with polydispersed particles at higher temperatures (120 °C or 180 °C), the etching process dominates, which affects the quality of the nanoparticles in terms of their monodispersity. We conclude that the temperature-dependent strength of the interaction between the ligand headgroup and the nanoparticle surface plays a vital role in controlling the final particle sizes.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;3.993&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
