Fig. 3From: Recent advances in metal nanoparticles to treat periodontitisTo treat periodontitis, the composite nanoplatforms of E-Au@H activated by NIR light have been shown to promote angiogenesis, cell migration, osteogenesis, and antimicrobial effects. The ability of E-Au@H to stimulate bone healing in periodontal infection models was proven in vitro. More importantly, the trials confirmed the composite's biosafety. Investigator’s work shows the promising effects of E-Au@H on periodontitis models and provides a novel approach to treating periodontitis [53]Back to article page
