Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue highlights groundbreaking advancements in dental and oral surgical techniques, technologies, and treatment protocols. With rapid innovations in minimally invasive procedures, biomaterials, and digital dentistry, this collection aims to bridge the gap between research and clinical practice. We seek to compile high-impact studies that demonstrate improved patient outcomes, enhanced precision, and reduced recovery times in oral surgery.
We welcome original research articles and review papers focusing on the following topics:
- Advanced implantology and bone regeneration techniques;
- Robotic-assisted and computer-guided oral surgeries;
- Novel biomaterials for tissue engineering and wound healing;
- Management of complex craniofacial reconstructions;
- Innovations in anesthesia and pain control protocols.
This Special Issue will provide clinicians with evidence-based insights to refine surgical approaches and adopt emerging technologies in daily practice.
