Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The success of our previous first volume of the Special Issue “Advanced Dental Materials: From Design to Application” underlines that the development of dentistry, and thus dental materials, is very fast and requires further research. This fact has encouraged us to create a second Special Issue under the same title that will further present state-of-the-art advances in dental materials.
Nowadays, the expectations of patients and he demands of dentists are therefore increasing. Much effort is invested in the development and improvement of the properties of dental materials used in everyday practice. The aesthetic properties of the materials are very important, but so are their mechanical and physical properties, meaning that they can withstand loads within a very dynamic environment—the oral cavity.
Therefore, the aim of this Special Issue is to present the results of the latest research on the properties of various materials: ceramic, acrylic resin and composite materials and dental alloys, and their application in the field of prosthodontics using analog and digital technologies, i.e., additive and subtractive manufacturing technologies.
As the Guest Editors of the journal Materials, we would like to invite you to submit a research article, review paper, or case report.
Dr. Tina Poklepovic Pericic
