Advancements of Nanomaterials in Oral Health and Clinical Dentistry

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue of Nanomaterials includes high-impact articles on advancements in nanomaterials and nanotechnology related to improving oral health and clinical dentistry. It covers novel nanomaterials’ synthesis, characterization and use in treatment strategies for overcoming dental hard- and soft-tissue disease. Nanotechnology helps in attaining a healthier lifestyle. Nanomaterials have been extensively explored in different fields of dentistry, e. g., preventive dentistry, operative dentistry, periodontology, stomatology, and implantology. Examples include accelerating bone healing by coating nanoparticles onto dental implants surfaces and oral drug delivery.

The main objective of this Special Issue is to publish original studies, systematic and metanalysis review papers and randomized clinical trials that have investigated the effect of using nanomaterials in diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in oral health and clinical dentistry.

This Special Issue will cover the following themes.

• Nanoparticles.
• Nanomaterials.
• Zirconia nanoparticles.
• Nano-adhesive.
• Titanium nanoparticles.
• Dental implants.
• Prosthodontic materials.
• Dental caries.
• Preventive materials.
• Dental composite.
• Nanocomposites.
• Dental ceramics.
• Nano-drugs and delivery.
• Antimicrobial drugs.
• Regenerative dentistry.

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. Nanomaterials 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 2400 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.
