Abstract

Two-dimensional (2D) nanoarchitectonics involve the creation of functional material assemblies and structures at the nanoscopic level by combining and organizing nanoscale components through various strategies, such as chemical and physical reforming, atomic and molecular manipulation, and self-assembly. Significant advancements have been made in the field, with the goal of producing functional materials from these nanoscale components. 2D nanomaterials, in particular, have gained substantial attention due to their large surface areas which are ideal for numerous surface-active applications. In this review article, nanoarchitectonics of 2D nanomaterials based biomedical applications are discussed. We aim to provide a concise overview of how nanoarchitectonics using 2D nanomaterials can be applied to dental healthcare, with an emphasis on biosensing and drug delivery. By offering a deeper understanding of nanoarchitectonics with programmable structures and predictable properties, we hope to inspire new innovations in the dental bioapplications of 2D nanomaterials.
