Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Dental materials and devices have been progressing quickly in various fields of dentistry. Dental materials are studied in a wide range of fields such as adhesive dentistry, orthodontics, implantology, endodontics, periodontal tissue regeneration, bone regeneration, and drug delivery systems (DDSs). In addition, the contribution of dental devices (high-frequency stimulation devices, etc.) to patient treatment has been significant. Starting with basic research, the process of development and clinical application overcomes various difficulties along the way and, if successful, can contribute to society through patient treatment.
This Special Issue titled “Current and Future Trends in Dental Materials and Devices” calls for original papers or review articles about the material, technology, and device developments, applications, characterizations, etc., focused on a wide range of dental materials and devices. In the broader sense of dental materials, medical biomaterials may be included in this Special Issue.
