Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Over the past few years, oral surgery (OS) and implant dentistry (ID) have experienced constant improvements in many aspects of patient care. We have witnessed a remarkable development of new surgical protocols and the implementation of new technologies into clinical practice. Although the OS and ID specialties originated in dentistry, the field has attracted collaboration and knowledge from numerous disciplines, such as medicine, radiology, as well as biomedical engineering. The specialties’ ultimate goal is to provide evidence-based practices by minimizing patient morbidity and maximizing treatment success rate outcomes.
The objective of this issue is to focus on updates in recent or emerging practices in OS and ID patients. The research topic may include but is not limited to innovative surgical techniques and or protocols, advanced imaging in planning and delivery od surgical treatments, OS surgical treatment disorders, and OS and ID clinical studies. Research may be prospective or retrospective, and review articles are encouraged.
Dr. Roberto Sacco
Guest Editor
