Special Issue Information
Dear colleagues,
Dental implants are a reliable treatment option for replacing missing teeth in both partially and completely edentulous patients. The introduction of new dental materials and digital technologies is modifying the oral implantology practice by increasing the accuracy, precision, and predictability; saving chair time; reducing waste; and consequently, saving time and improving the patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs). This Special Issue aims to contribute to the unrelenting and rapid evolution of digital workflows in implant dentistry.
