Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The remarkable advancements of stem cell biology and the progress in biomaterial research are prompting an impressive development of protocols based on regenerative techniques in dentistry. Clinical applications range between pulp revitalization procedures, guided tissue regeneration and stem cell implantation for hard and soft tissue repair. While in the past, grafts and membranes were used for guided tissue regeneration, technological advancements are now constantly pushing the boundaries further. Thus, new dental techniques are continuously bridging the gap between research and clinical application. As the guest editor of the Special Issue on these topics, which will be published in the Biomedicine journal (Publisher MDPI, St Alban-Anlage 66, Basel, Switzerland; IF 2019: 4.717), I would like to invite colleagues who have experience in both the dental and biological fields and who are experts in dental tissue engineering to participate.
This Special Issue aims to be a report on the state of the art of basic, translational, and clinical research in the tissue engineering field that can provide fellow dentists and researchers of various specialties with information on regenerative techniques.
The Special Issue will cover but not be limited to the following topics:
Bases of bone physiology;
Wound healing;
Biomaterials in use in dentistry;
Growth factors for dental use;
Implant surface treatment;
Surgical techniques of bone regeneration;
Regeneration aspects in conservative dentistry;
Regeneration aspects in periodontal therapy;
Regeneration aspects in implantology;
Mesenchymal stem cells;
State of the art of clinical applications of stem cells in bone regeneration.
It is my pleasure to invite you to submit a manuscript for this Special Issue. Full papers, communications, and reviews are welcome.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Biomedicines is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
