Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The aim of the present Special Issue is strongly related to the spread of new technologies in the dental field. In particular, the digital workflow is reporting encouraging results and protocols to be applied in the everyday clinical activity. Such new digital devices can make dental procedures safer and faster, leading to excellent clinical results at long-term follow-up.
The Special Issue is dedicated to all manuscripts regarding in vitro and in vivo research about these technologies, with an impact on the rehabilitations of patients, including implant-supported prostheses, digital workflow, innovative imaging techniques, oral hygiene supporting rehabilitation maintenance, CAD-CAM applications, and intraoral scanning.
Moreover, papers about the management of patients with systemic diseases, elderly ones, and other rare conditions are accepted, in particular, if realized through innovative technologies or mini-invasive protocols.
Dr. Paolo Cappare
Guest Editor
