Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, "Feature Reviews in Biomaterials for Oral Diseases", will focus on feature reviews of current or emerging materials for permanent or long-term intraoral use. This includes bone graft substitutes as well as materials for dental implants, adhesive restorations, or prostheses. In particular, metal-free materials have huge potential for improvement in terms of biocompatibility, fracture resistance, wear, acid solubility, biofilm attachment, and many other properties. This Special Issue focuses on articles that combine known and new knowledge on biomaterials with oral applications to present the current state of the science and identify the need for further research. We cordially invite authors in the field to submit review articles about this important and fast-progressing field of biomedicine.
Prof. Dr. Oliver Schierz
Guest Editor
