**Abstract**

The field of nanotechnology is experiencing rapid growth owing to its distinctive functionality and diverse range of applications. Nanomedicine is a field of study that investigates the potential applications of nanotechnology in the areas of disease prevention, treatment, diagnosis, and control. The significance of silver nanoparticles lies in their distinct characteristics, capacity to generate varied nanostructures, extensive range of bactericidal and anticancer properties, wound healing and other therapeutic capabilities, and cost-effectiveness in manufacturing. These nanoparticles are particularly noteworthy due to their size, which can range from 1 to 100 nm. This paper provides an overview of diverse physical, chemical, and biological techniques employed for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles. The text delineates various methodologies utilizing silver nanoparticles as agents for combating microbial and biofilm infections, as well as for their potential as antitumorigenic agents. Additionally, the text explores the applications of silver nanoparticles in the field of dentistry and dental implants, their role in promoting bone regeneration, their use in cardiovascular implants, and their potential as promoters of wound healing. The present study investigates the mechanism of action, synthesis techniques, and morphological characterization of silver nanoparticles in order to evaluate their potential applications in medical therapies and disease control.
