Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The objective of this Special Issue is to update researchers and professionals interested in the New Possibilities for Digital Diagnosis and Planning in Dentistry. Digital diagnosis is particularly attractive both for a professional who is able to quickly communicate with other specialists and/or professionals in his own sector and in a similar sector, even very distant ones in a short time. Furthermore, it is also very interesting from the point of view of the patient's interest in therapy, which if simulated in its entirety is made more easily understandable from certain points of view that stimulate the patient. Current diagnostic tools allow us to obtain a lot of information during the first visit and often also reduce the radiation dose that is administered to the patient to complete the diagnostic phase of the therapeutic process. The ability to quickly superimpose different tests has greatly facilitated the ability to make diagnoses and plan and execute complex treatment plans. Starting from the digital impression, and from the simulators of prosthetic/orthodontic treatments that derive from it, arriving at the wide FOV low-dose imaging technologies allow us to frame a complex surgical, prosthetic case with a single diagnostic exam and with limited patient exposure to radiation dose. The possibilities that are currently offered to the clinician significantly increase his ability to provide diagnoses and treatments, facilitated by the production methods of prosthetic rehabilitations in materials designed and created in a short time with often complete digital flows. I hope that this Special Issue can represent a meeting point between different specialists of the Facial Massif, allowing the rapid dissemination of knowledge and a stimulating comparison between professionals and researchers in this area.
