Keynote Address: Responsive Technologies in Dentistry: Shaping the Future of Biomaterials and Treatment Strategies

Abstract Body: This symposium will explore the transformative potential of stimuli-responsive synthetic platforms, focusing on the unique challenges and opportunities they bring to the field of dentistry. As the dental materials evolves, these innovative technologies present an exciting avenue for creating adaptable biomaterials that respond to specific stimuli, such as enzymes, pH changes, temperature shifts, or signaling biomarkers. We will discuss how these advanced platforms can be effectively adapted for dental applications, enabling more targeted and efficient treatments. With the potential to revolutionize patient care and enhance treatment outcomes, these technologies position dentistry at the cutting edge of responsive and personalized healthcare solutions.
