Recent Advances in Regenerative Dentistry—Second Edition

Dear Colleagues,

This is the expanded second edition of the Special Issue “Recent Advances in Regenerative Dentistry”, which was very successful with 13 papers published in the 1st edition. During the past two decades, regenerative dentistry has intensified dental research and clinical treatments. Stem cells from oral tissue (e.g., dental pulp, jawbone, periodontal ligament, and lamina propria of the oral mucosa, oral epithelium, salivary glands and the developing tooth organ) have shown potential for the regeneration of various tissues and organs. Through stem cell banking, oral stem cells can be cryogenically preserved for future use in regenerative and personalized medicine. On the other hand, newly developed dental materials and reagents have been used for orofacial tissue repair in experimental research and clinical practice.

This Special Issue welcomes manuscripts (including original research articles, reviews and others) providing insight into the applications of oral stem cells; regenerative medicine; orofacial tissue repair; bioengineering of tooth, periodontal tissue and salivary glands; oral stem cell banking; and dental materials for tissue regeneration. We are interested in a wide range of works, including experimental and preclinical studies.

We look forward to your contributions.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Cells is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
