Abstract Dentin hypersensitivity (DH), marked by exposed dentinal tubules, presents as a sharp toothache triggered stimuli and subsides when the are removed. To address limitations of current commercial desensitizers in terms acid resistance, friction stability, black phosphorus nanosheet‐composited methacrylate gelatin hydrogel (GelMA/BP) is developed for DH treatment, leveraging synergistic effects photothermal therapy biomineralization. Incorporating BP nanosheet provided GelMA/BP with stable response continuous release phosphate anions, which blocked tubules converting light energy into heat initiating In vitro desensitizing showed that tubule diameter GelMA/BP50 group (0−1.13 µm) significantly reduced compared to DH‐model (0−3.14 µm). The achieved an 86% occlusion rate, resistance 80%, 76%, long‐term stability 74%. vivo studies further validated efficacy GelMA/BP50, showing reduction (0−0.37 rate 79%, alleviated increased intake weight.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) represents a significant global public health issue, with effective management posing numerous challenges. The pathophysiology of TBI is typically categorized into two phases: primary and secondary injuries. Secondary involves pathophysiological mechanisms such as blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption, mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, inflammatory responses. Current pharmacological strategies often encounter obstacles in treating effectively, primarily due to challenges BBB penetration, inadequate target site accumulation, off-target toxicity. Versatile hydrogels nanoparticles offer potential solutions these limitations. This review discusses recent progress utilizing for treatment over the past 5 years, highlighting their relevance underlying pathophysiology. Hydrogels demonstrate substantial promise addressing injury, providing broad spectrum future therapeutic opportunities.
