Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Dental resin composites have undergone significant advancements, focusing on improving aesthetics, strength, and biocompatibility. Future developments aim to enhance color matching, durability, and handling characteristics for easier placement. Efforts in biocompatibility enhancement seek to minimize adverse reactions and better integrate with oral tissues. Improvements in adhesive properties aim to strengthen bonds with tooth structure. Emerging trends include integrating bioactive and antibacterial agents for remineralization and cavity prevention. There is also a shift towards minimally invasive techniques and exploring nanotechnology for enhancing mechanical properties. Additionally, 3D printing holds promise for customizing dental restorations efficiently. The future of resin composites lies in continued research and innovation to optimize their performance and clinical outcomes in restorative dentistry.
The aim of this Special Issue is to highlight research in the field of dental materials and their application in dentistry, with a particular focus on restorative dentistry.
It is our pleasure to invite you to submit an original research article or a review to this Special Issue.

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. Journal of Functional Biomaterials 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.
