Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Oral biology has undergone enormous advancements in recent years, mainly driven by innovations in biotechnology, molecular biology, and artificial intelligence, which have not only expanded our understanding of oral diseases but also upgraded our therapeutic approaches such as tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Advances in genomics and proteomics have provided insights into the mechanisms underlying oral diseases as well as the discovery of specific biomarkers, especially within salivary diagnostics, with the aims of improving oral disease detection and providing personalized treatments. The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) paves the way to more accurate and precise oral biology research and medical practice via the analysis of complex datasets and biomarkers, enabling earlier disease detection that is faster and more precise, as well as the prediction of oral disease progression or the likelihood of their treatment success.
This Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the latest research trends and clinical innovations in oral biology, thereby encouraging articles which will focus on the innovations in genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, tissue engineering for restoring and regenerating oral tissues, AI’s application in accelerating research and medical practice, as well as drug discovery in oral biology. Interdisciplinary research aimed at promoting discussions and fostering oral–systemic health research and collaborative practice is preferred. In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following: genomics; proteomics; salivary diagnostics; artificial intelligence engagement; personalized medicine.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
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. Biology is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2700 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.
