Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Despite numerous advances in biomaterials for restorative dentistry, each material still has its own particular weaknesses that need to be addressed. This drives the study of both experimental materials with a well-defined composition to address a specific hypothesis and commercially available materials that are studied as integrated systems with a predefined composition and multiple interacting components. As research in this field is progressing rapidly, many new materials are being developed and introduced to the dental market without a thorough understanding of their behavior under demanding conditions in the oral cavity.
We invite the submission of in vitro or clinical studies that address the mechanical, chemical, or biological properties of all types of biomaterials for restorative dentistry. However, this Special Issue is not limited to the topics mentioned above. All manuscripts dealing with relevant studies on biomaterials and their applications in dentistry will be considered.

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. Materials 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 2600 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.
