Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, pediatric dentistry has acquired an increasingly important role among dental specialties, and the therapeutic approach has undergone significant development because of advances in technology, materials and disease knowledge. Pediatric dentists treat a wide range of diseases in infants, children and adolescents, including patients with rare disorders and special healthcare needs. Scientific progress, together with social changes, has led to improved professional activity and advancements in clinical practice, enabling quality dental care for all patients at a developmental age.
New behavior management techniques in the dental setting, inhalation conscious sedation with nitrous oxide and oxygen technique, new caries detection methods, minimally invasive restorative techniques, pain management with innovative and technologically driven drugs delivery systems, bioactive materials and their utilization both in endodontic and in restorative therapies and the management of molar incisor hypomineralisation (MIH) are some of the most relevant topics in the current research.
This Special Issue aims to promote research in all aspects of pediatric dentistry and publish studies providing novel approaches and original information, announce the current advances in pediatric dentistry and share information among professionals.
