Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to delve into the advancements and applications of various diagnostic tools and technologies that are revolutionizing the field of dentistry and maxillofacial surgery. From digital imaging techniques to sophisticated surgical planning tools, we will explore how these advancements are enhancing diagnostic accuracy, improving patient outcomes, and transforming clinical practice. We will cover a broad spectrum of topics, including but not limited to, digital radiography, cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), CAD/CAM technology, and various diagnostic advances in dentistry and oral surgery. This Special Issue will feature literature reviews and original research articles, providing a comprehensive perspective on this rapidly evolving field. It aims to serve as a valuable resource for professionals in the dental and surgical field, researchers, and students alike, offering insights into the current state and future directions of diagnostic tools in dentistry and maxillofacial surgery.
