Nanotechnology is an interdisciplinary field on the focus of most researchescarried out in the field of health in recent years. Nanotechnological drug release systems developed with nanotechnology have gained ground in many fields of medicine and have brought about in numerous advantages. The small sizes and high surface areas of nano-scale particles provide chemically more reactive and superior electrical, magnetic, optical, biological, or mechanical properties compared to their macroscopic or microscopic counterparts. Thanks to their superior physicochemical and biological properties, nanotechnological drugs are involved in the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of oral diseases such as dental caries, periodontal diseases, peri-implantitis, pulp, and periapical lesions, denture stomatitis, hyposalivation, oral cancer, and oral candidiasis. Nanotechnological drug delivery systems have taken an active role in the treatment of periodontal diseases and oral cancers, for they perform a long-term release in the mouth. This review study is aimed to explain the effects of nanotechnological drug delivery systems in the treatment of periodontal diseases and oral cancers, which will be examined under the title of oral diseases.
