Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The transformative impact of digital technologies in dentistry, particularly in the field of oral implantology, reflects our pursuit of excellence in patient care. The integration of digital workflows has not only streamlined diagnostic and treatment planning processes but has also introduced a new era of precision and predictability in dental procedures. The advent of cone beam computed tomography and intra-oral scanners has been pivotal, providing clinicians with detailed three-dimensional images that facilitate meticulous planning and execution for dental implants. The synergy of virtual planning and artificial intelligence has further augmented the capabilities of dental professionals, offering tools that simulate various clinical scenarios and enhance decision-making processes. This fusion of technology and expertise is revolutionizing educational paradigms, equipping students with an enhanced understanding of complex procedures through virtual simulations. The comprehensive approach enabled through virtual implant planning extends to prosthetic setup and guided implant surgery, ensuring that each phase of treatment is executed with the utmost accuracy.
Going forward, the continuous evolution of digital dentistry will continue to attract researchers and practitioners and remain at the forefront of technological advancements. Staying updated on these developments represents a commitment to delivering superior care.
In light of this, this Special Issue, “Recent Advances in Digital Dentistry and Oral Implantology”, will serve as a platform for sharing innovative research and clinical experiences, fostering a collaborative environment where knowledge and expertise converge to achieve new standards in dental practice.
