Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Special Issue aims to investigate the most recent advances and discoveries in biomaterials designed exclusively for dental applications. This includes materials used in restorative dentistry, prosthodontics, endodontics, periodontics, and oral surgery. The emphasis will be on materials science, engineering principles, and clinical applications to address current issues in dental care. The goal is to create a forum for researchers, clinicians, and industry specialists to communicate their perspectives, discoveries, and experiences in creating and implementing advanced biomaterials in the dentistry area.
The Special Issue will examine the most recent research trends, technical advancements, and clinical outcomes in materials science, dentistry, and allied fields. Contributions will be contextualized within the larger landscape of biomaterials research, dental materials science, and clinical dentistry, with the goal of bridging the gap between basic research and practical application. By collecting cutting-edge research and spotlighting innovative approaches, the Special Issue will help to shape the ongoing evolution of dental biomaterials, addressing critical obstacles and paving the way for future advancements.
