Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Oral health is closely related to overall health and essential to a child's overall quality of life. Dental caries, periodontal disease, malocclusion, and traumatic dental injuries are children's most common dental and oral problems. Because of their progressive nature, these conditions can lead to discomfort, pain, and oral dysfunction.
Fortunately, oral and dental problems in children can be mainly prevented through good oral hygiene, proper nutrition, regular dental visits, and avoidance of misbehavior. However, the prevalence of dental disease and harmful oral conditions continues to increase worldwide, highlighting the need for supplementary preventive strategies, including educating caregivers and pediatric patients.
In addition, innovative diagnostic and therapeutic approaches in pedodontics and orthodontics have been developed recently, with an increasing interest in biomaterials, imaging, digital dentistry, artificial intelligence, sleep dentistry, and new aligners.
This Special Issue aims to cover all new clinical approaches and techniques for preventive, diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic interventions in pediatric oral care and orthodontics, including innovations in technologies, materials, and devices.
Original research articles, reviews, and high-quality case reports are welcomed.
