Clinical Advances in Osseointegrated Oral Implants

Dear Colleagues,

The constantly evolving field of dental implantology is being scientifically investigated, employing a wide variety of approaches. The aim of this Special Issue is to provide a broad representation of cutting-edge research results at the highest scientific level, and, thus, to provide comprehensive knowledge about the latest state of the art.

For this purpose, we are searching for the latest results of clinical studies on various topics, including, but not limited to, the following: osseointegration, healing strategies, new diagnostic and treatment concepts, as well as minimally invasive procedures.

Diagnostic procedures can be, for example, biomolecular, histological or immunohistochemical analyses of samples from clinical studies.

Innovative treatment concepts can be based on material aspects, variations in superstructures and fixation types on the one hand, but also on lean and/or digital workflows. The questions of how successful implant treatment can be further improved, and which possibilities of prevention arise to protect individuals against implant loss shall be addressed, as well as how successful therapy of peri-implant inflammation may look in the future, based on the current state of science.

Join us in describing and charting the path to the future of modern implant dentistry.
