Orthodontics and New Technologies

Dear Colleagues,

Nowadays, orthodontics is rapidly changing, and more and more patients ask for a consultation to improve their smile and aesthetics. Such an increase is paired with an incredible technological evolution that makes the orthodontic treatments really close to the needs of the patients. There are numerous new technologies in the orthodontic field:

• Clear aligners;
• Intra oral scanners;
• Digital planning of the treatment;
• Orthodontic accelerators;
• Telemedicine;
• New innovative materials.

The synergy between orthodontics and new technologies meets the desires of the patients, but also helps clinicians to share and improve their knowledge and clinical satisfaction in order to deliver the best outcome.

This Special Issue aims to investigate the current available state of the art in orthodontics and new dental technologies, both from researchers and clinicians’ points of view.
