Antibacterial properties of mesoporous silica coated with cerium oxide nanoparticles in dental resin composite

Abstract Cerium oxide nanoparticles are known for their antibacterial effects resulting from Ce3+ to Ce4+ conversion. Application of such cerium oxide nanoparticles in dentistry has been previously considered but limited due to deterioration of mechanical properties. Hence, this study aimed to exami...
