Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Orthodontic and dental treatment faces high esthetic and functional demands. Current research aims to improve patient health, appearance, and satisfaction. Novel equipment and materials have been lately developed to aid in successful orthodontic and dental therapy. Recent innovations in dental material science are associated with progress in digital techniques and software for diagnostic, treatment planning and therapy.
Orthodontic and dental treatment is associated with a wide range of materials and methods. Numerous novel products are commercially available and proposed for performing treatment procedures without evidence-based clinical guidelines. Thus, scientific studies referring to novel materials and techniques are of high interest both for scientists and clinicians.
The special issue aims to attract papers referring to the role of novel materials and techniques in the development of dental and orthodontic diagnosis and treatment.
Papers (systematic reviews and original papers) are invited referring to mechanical properties of modern dental and orthodontic materials, the use of novel diagnostic and treatment methods, 3D analysis of orthodontic tooth movement, digital treatment planning.
Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:
- Innovative approach to orthodontic diagnostics and treatment planning
- Modern methods of detecting and treating dental caries
- The use of intraoral scanners in conservative dentistry
- Innovative methods of treating caries complications
- Modern prevention in dentistry
- The use of CBCT for orthodontic treatment planning
- The use of 3D software for monitoring orthodontic treatment
- Mechanical properties of dental and orthodontic materials
