Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Dental implantology stands at the forefront of modern dentistry, representing the primary and preferred treatment for replacing missing teeth.
The global dental implant market is experiencing rapid growth, with research into this field continuing to make significant advancements.
New dental implants and improvements in surgical procedures, dental materials, digital dentistry and research techniques have enhanced clinician workflows and the standard of care provided to patients, thereby improving treatment quality and outcomes. Some developments in robotic dental implant surgery that may have seemed futuristic a few years ago have now become a reality.
We would like to invite you to contribute to an upcoming Special Issue titled "Innovative Techniques and Materials in Implant Dentistry". This Special Issue seeks the submission of original research, review articles, and case studies that cover the latest advancements in basic, clinical and translational research in the field of implant dentistry.
Potential topics include, but are not limited, to the following:
- Dental implants materials and design;
- Surgical techniques for the placement of dental implants;
- Clinical in vivo and in vitro studies;
- The use of digital dentistry in implantology;
- Biomaterials in implant dentistry and osseous regeneration;
- Regenerative techniques in peri-implant tissue augmentation;
- Diseases of peri-implant tissues and their management;
- New concepts and future research strategies in dental implantology.
We look forward to receiving your manuscripts. We hope that this Special Issue will improve our scientific understanding of implant dentistry and patient treatment.
