Keeping in mind the increasing number of beneficiary fields, we can establish the fact that even the field of dentistry is not spared. An ample number of mechanical and physical properties of dental materials could be amended by smearing nanotechnology concept. This review article epitomizes a general gestalt of the uses of various nanoparticles in prosthodontics. In particular, suitable applications in acrylic resin, tissue conditioner, dental adhesives, dental composites, dental cements, dental porcelain, implants and maxillofacial prosthesis are appraised.
