Recent Advances in Biomaterials for Restorative and Implant Dentistry

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue "Recent Advances in Biomaterials for Restorative and Implant Dentistry" disseminates cutting-edge research and innovations in the field of dental biomaterials. Dental biomaterials play an essential role in modern dentistry, encompassing a wide range of applications, from restorative materials that replicate natural teeth to advanced implantable devices designed to restore oral health and aesthetics.

This Special Issue is dedicated to showcasing recent dental biomaterials research, shedding light on novel materials, advanced testing methodologies, and emerging trends. It acts as a bridge between academic research and practical applications, facilitating the translation of scientific breakthroughs into real-world solutions that benefit both dental practitioners and their patients.

We invite researchers and experts in the field to contribute original research articles and insightful reviews. The topics of interest include material design and synthesis,

biocompatibility assessments, mechanical and chemical properties, and the customization of biomaterials for patients’ specific needs. By bringing together these diverse contributions, we aim to provide a comprehensive overview of the state of the art in dental biomaterials.

We invite you to collaborate on this exciting project, as we shape the future of dental biomaterials and their pivotal role in advancing oral healthcare worldwide.
