Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the aftermath of the pandemic, oral health has emerged as a global priority, increasingly recognized for its critical connection to systemic health. Today, professionals across multiple medical disciplines are working collaboratively to address the growing need for integrated approaches to healthcare and to answer emerging questions about global wellness.
This Special Issue focuses on recent advances in oral hygiene and oral health, aiming to highlight innovative strategies, technologies, and interdisciplinary practices that are reshaping the field. We welcome contributions including systematic and narrative reviews, original research articles, surveys, and case reports. Submissions that offer novel insights into oral medicine, dental hygiene, and their links to systemic diseases are especially encouraged.
Our goal is to present a comprehensive overview of the current state of the art, showcase significant developments, and inspire new research directions. We invite researchers and clinicians to submit their work and contribute to the advancement of knowledge in oral and systemic health.
Prof. Dr. Marco Dolci
