| Resumo: | Introduction: Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) is used in dentistry due to its mechanical, physical and aesthetic characteristics. Thanks to its wide application and increasing need to obtain materials with improved properties, nanoparticles (Nps) are added as an antimicrobial agent or even for biofilm inhibition on oral surfaces. Objective: To compare the antimicrobial properties of PMMA/Nps composites in the dental field and thus aid in the prevention of stomatological pathologies. Material and methods: A systematic review was conducted out in different databases (PubMed, ScienceDirect, Medline and CONRICyT) to analyse the antimicrobial properties of PMMA with Nps, selected based on inclusion criteria. The review was carried out according to the PRISMA protocol. Results: Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (NpsTiO2) showed to be the most studied on a variety of microorganisms. In contrast, silver nanoparticles (NpsAg), showed a higher percentage of bacterial inhibition. During the development of the review, the antimicrobial effect was verified against the most common microorganisms in the oral cavity. The most common microorganisms studied were Streptococcus mutans and Candida albicans. Conclusions: All Nps added to PMMA, either with graphene or individually, have an antimicrobial effect that which has been a constant in recent years due to the advantages they provide. |
