Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
For this Special Issue, titled 'Technological Innovations and Tools in Dental Practice', we invite contributions exploring the development and application of advanced monitoring tools and techniques that enhance diagnostic, preventive, and therapeutic approaches in dentistry. This Special Issue focuses on innovative technological solutions employed by dental professionals to improve patient outcomes. We welcome submissions detailing the integration of digital dentistry, imaging techniques, artificial intelligence, and wearable devices in clinical practice. Authors should highlight the practical applications of these technologies in areas such as operative dentistry, implantology, orthodontics, endodontics, prosthetics, and tissue engineering. Additionally, we encourage discussions on the implications of big data and data mining in dentistry, the use of robotics, and the future of nanodentistry. Contributions that address the educational needs and policy changes necessary to support these advancements are also valued. This Special Issue aims to provide a platform for sharing cutting-edge research and practices that underscore the critical role of technology in the evolution of dental care.
