Abstract: In modern dentistry, the development of intelligent dental materials marks a significant innovation aimed at enhancing patient care and treatment outcomes. These materials, which dynamically respond to changes in the oral environment, include self-healing dental fillings, antibacterial properties, color-changing indicators for early decay detection, biocompatible implants, and temperature-sensitive prosthetics. This paper explores various categories of intelligent dental materials, emphasizing their potential to improve restoration longevity, promote oral health, enhance patient comfort, and facilitate early intervention. As ongoing research continues to refine these innovations, intelligent dental materials promise to revolutionize dental practices and patient experiences, paving the way for a new era of preventive and restorative dentistry.
