Preparation and characterization of poly (methyl methacrylate)-silver nanoparticles polymer composite as a dental prosthesis

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been used for centuries in the field of medicine due to the its antimicrobial properties. AgNPs had been synthesized and incorporated in different aspects of biomaterials. According to previous studies, AgNPs provides sufficient antimicrobial effect at lower filler...
