Applied Science for Oral Implantology—Fake vs. News

Dear Colleagues,

Performing surgery based on facts is an ideal we all strive to achieve. The present Special Issue intends to introduce new manuscripts focused on cutting-edge and rapidly developing treatment modalities and their applications to oral surgery, focusing on evidence-based medicine. Many presume that fake news is not part of medical science. This is not always the reality. Advances in imaging, instrumentation, biomaterials, and techniques bring us closer to effective surgery; however, commercial interests might lead to fake news looking like news. The manuscripts should discuss both the “how to” as well as the “why” behind the concept of evidence-based surgery, explaining the news and ruling out the fake. “Applied Science for Oral Implantology‎—Fake vs. News” will be a useful new guide to a large variety of specialists seeking to refine their clinical expertise on evidence-based medicine. Fake paradigms rejected by evidence-based medicine are highly welcome.
