Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Review Description
This systematic review investigates the antibacterial effects of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) on polymicrobial biofilms in endodontics, emphasizing their potential enhancement of traditional treatment methods. Recognizing the limitations of current endodontic disinfectants in fully eradicating complex biofilms, this study focuses on the synergistic potential of AgNPs to improve antimicrobial efficacy. Utilizing a systematic approach based on PRISMA guidelines, the review draws on studies from databases like PubMed, Web of Science, and SCOPUS up to 2024. The included research specifically examines the role of AgNPs in various endodontic applications against resilient biofilms, adhering to strict inclusion criteria that demand clear methodology and measurable outcomes. The results suggest that AgNPs can significantly augment the biofilm disruption capabilities of conventional antimicrobials, potentially due to their ability to modify the biofilm matrix and enhance agent penetration. However, the effectiveness varies depending on the nanoparticle concentration and application technique, indicating a need for further optimized studies. In conclusion, while AgNPs show promise in enhancing endodontic antimicrobial protocols, additional in vivo research is necessary to establish standardized, effective, and safe clinical applications. The review highlights the complex interactions between nanoparticle properties and biofilm biology, underscoring the importance of further investigation in this area.
