Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Over recent decades, dentistry has flourished as a specialized and substantial part of clinical veterinary medicine, with an increased academic, economical, and scientifical interest. However, there are important knowledge gaps due to either technical, investment, and research barriers. From this point of view, the increase in and sharing of knowledge in core areas of veterinary dentistry, such as periodontology, endodontics, and the surgery of non-neoplastic and neoplastic processes, are crucial for the evolution of this area. In this context, it is also vital to share knowledge with human dentistry, in the context of comparison and mutual learning. This Special Issue aims to showcase original research articles, reviews, analysis methods, perspectives, and novel findings in veterinary patients that might contribute to an increase in knowledge on dentistry in companion animals.
