The purpose of this study was to evaluate the scientific literature related to the use of graphene and its derivatives in dentistry. Electronic research was carried out on PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science. The studies found included the following topics: the use of graphene in tissue engineering, implantology, as an antibacterial material and in the manufacture of dental materials. The studies analyzed have provided promising results for a wide range of applications in dentistry and for this reason the use of graphene in dentistry deserves further investigation to define the benefits of these materials and their use in dental treatments.
