Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Oral inflammatory diseases with different aetiopathogenetic mechanisms can occur as a primary disease, as a consequence of systemic diseases, or iatrogenically (e.g., oncological therapy). A detailed medical and dental history and a clinical oral examination are the basis for correct and timely diagnosis and treatment.
The treatment of patients with oral inflammatory diseases should be multidisciplinary (involving specialists in dermatoveneology, immunology, gastroenterology, and oncology). The evidence-based connection between oral and general health is well known. The connection between physical and mental health in the treatment of oral inflammatory diseases should not be neglected either.
The aim of this Special Issue of Medicina is to present the latest findings and achievements in the diagnosis and treatment of oral inflammatory diseases, including the aetiopathogenetic mechanism, clinical picture, diagnosis, treatment, and clinical outcomes. In addition, contributing articles relate to all multidisciplinary fields (medicine and dentistry) in which the oral cavity is affected by inflammation.
We invite colleagues from all over the world to publish their latest clinical and scientific experiences in this Special Issue, “Recent Breakthroughs in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Oral Inflammatory Diseases”, in the form of original studies, case series, case–control studies, randomised control trials, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses. New insights in the treatment of oral inflammatory diseases (with a multidisciplinary approach) are crucial for achieving optimal clinical outcomes and thus for general health.
