Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Over the last decades, dentistry has been pressed for the emergence of new and effective dental materials for different applications. In this field, dental researchers have been proposing innovative ideas for laboratory and clinical solutions. An extensive search in the scientific literature clearly shows good news in areas such as bioactive and antimicrobial restorative materials, adhesives with special abilities, new dental ceramics, and the development of more-effective implant systems and related materials as well. Irrespective of the outcomes reached until now, new proposals are still welcome to further improve the rate of success of dental clinical treatments. As Guest Editor of the Special Issue entitled “Advances in Dental Materials and Their Applications”, I cordially invite researchers to contribute their manuscripts (clinical and laboratory research and reviews) to this project.
