Electrospun nanofibers applications in caries lesions: prevention, treatment and regeneration.
Dental caries is a multifactorial disease primarily mediated by biofilm formation, resulting in a net loss of mineral content and degradation of organic matrix in dental hard tissues. Caries lesions of varying depths can result in demineralization of the superficial enamel, the formation of deep cavities extending into the dentin, and even pulp infection. Electrospun nanofibers (ESNs) exhibit an expansive specific surface area and a porous structure, closely mimicking the unique architecture of the natural extracellular matrix (ECM). This unique topography caters to the transport of small molecules and facilitates localized therapeutic drug delivery, offering great potential in regulating cell behavior, and thereby attracting interest in ESNs' applications in the treatment of caries lesions and the reconditioning of the affected dental tissues. Thus, this review aims to consolidate the recent developments in ESNs' applications for caries lesions. This review begins with an introduction to the electrospinning technique and provides a comprehensive overview of the biological properties and modification methods of ESNs, followed by an introduction outlining the basic pathological processes, classification and treatment requirements of caries lesions. Finally, the review offers a detailed examination of the research progress on the ESNs' application in caries lesions and concludes by addressing the limitations.
