Abstract

Over time, different silver preparations have maintained a sustained interest from the medical community. The article highlights the up-to-date knowledge on qualities, properties and applications of the colloidal silver in the field of surgery and dentistry. It aims to provide a synthesis of current issues regarding the complex action of colloidal silver on burn wounds and analyzes the anti-infectious, anti-inflammatory and wound healing properties of modern silver releasing systems. The silver nanoparticles have also been implemented in various fields of dentistry, including dental prostheses, implantology, restorative and endodontic dentistry, with very promising results.
