Abstract

Nanotechnology, delving into the realm of nanometric structures, stands as a transformative force in orthopedics, reshaping diagnostics, and numerous regenerative interventions. Commencing with diagnostics, this scientific discipline empowers accurate analyses of various diseases and implant stability, heralding an era of unparalleled precision. Acting as carriers for medications, nanomaterials introduce novel therapeutic possibilities, propelling the field towards more targeted and effective treatments. In arthroplasty, nanostructural modifications to implant surfaces not only enhance mechanical properties but also promote superior osteointegration and durability. Simultaneously, nanotechnology propels tissue regeneration, with nanostructured dressings emerging as pivotal elements in accelerating wound healing. As we navigate the frontiers of nanotechnology, ongoing research illuminates promising avenues for further advancements, assuring a future where orthopedic practices are not only personalized but also highly efficient, promising a captivating journey through groundbreaking innovations and tailored patient care.
