Advanced Dental Materials for Oral Rehabilitation

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue, titled "Advanced Dental Materials for Oral Rehabilitation", will explore the latest innovations and developments in dental materials that are crucial for enhancing oral rehabilitation practices. Our goal is to bring together cutting-edge research that focuses on the design, synthesis, and application of novel materials that improve both the functional and aesthetic outcomes of dental restorations and prosthetics. We seek to address significant challenges in oral rehabilitation, such as the durability of materials under mechanical stress, biocompatibility with oral tissues, and the seamless integration of materials with biological tissues. Contributions will delve into advanced dental materials, including high-strength ceramics, polymer composites, bioactive glasses, and smart materials that respond to environmental stimuli. Research on innovative bonding agents and surface treatments that enhance the adhesion and longevity of dental restorations is also highly encouraged. This Special Issue will highlight interdisciplinary approaches that combine insights from materials science, biomedical engineering, and clinical dentistry. We aim to develop materials that not only meet the necessary mechanical and aesthetic requirements but also promote tissue regeneration and minimize adverse reactions.

You may choose our Joint Special Issue in Oral.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Materials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
