Objectives The present study aims to evaluate which studies evaluated the effectiveness of incorporating silver vanadate into dental materials and to analyze the influence of this incorporation on antimicrobial activity and material properties; Data This review was led by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) Checklist and the JBI Briggs Reviewers Manual to answer the following question: Does the nanostructured silver vanadate decorate with silver particles present anti-microbial activity when incorporated into dental materials without altering its mechanical properties? Source An electronic search without restriction on the dates or languages was performed in PubMed/MEDLINE, Web of Science, Lilacs, Scopus, and Embase up until 2020. The search was specified and limited to the use of the words "nanostructured silver vanadate" in double quotation marks. Study selection The initial search resulted in 55 articles. After an initial assessment and careful reading, 15 studies published between 2014 and 2020 were included in this review. Conclusions With the present scope review, it was possible to observe the good interaction between AgVO3 and dental materials and have a clarity that it is possible to use them in different types of materials in order to reduce the probability of infections resulting from the biofilm that is installed in them.
