Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Oral surgery is undergoing significant transformations due to the integration of new technologies, advanced surgical techniques and innovative biomaterials.
From minimally invasive procedures to digital planning and regenerative solutions, these advances are reshaping patient care, improving outcomes and expanding treatment options.
This Special Issue of Medicina, entitled "Updates on Oral Surgery", aims to highlight the latest developments in the field. These include novel surgical approaches, state-of-the-art imaging and navigation systems, 3D printing applications and biomaterials for improved tissue regeneration. This issue also encompasses technological innovations such as artificial intelligence in diagnostics and robotic surgery, which are laying the foundation for precision-guided interventions.
By bringing together research on these emerging trends, this Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive resource for clinicians and researchers committed to the advancement of oral surgery. We invite contributions that address clinical applications, experimental studies and future directions in this dynamic and evolving specialty.
