Abstract

Disclosed is a dental composition, comprising unsaturated double bond-containing monomers and/or oligomers, a catalytic amount of polymerization initiator to initiate polymerization, and a filler, wherein the dental composition comprises an organic nanotube containing an antibacterial or anticariogenic material to inhibit or prevent tooth decay.The dental composition comprises an organic nanotube containing an antibacterial or anticariogenic material, thus uniformly and continuously exhibiting anticariogenic and antibacterial activities, while avoiding deterioration in physical properties required for the dental material.
