Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The development of new therapeutic materials is followed by necessary equipment, instruments, and treatment techniques in the dental field. Newly developed materials and technologies, such as nanotechnology, can contribute to solving the problems of traditional dental care and lead to profound changes in prosthetics, restorative dentistry, and endodontics. In the last few years, new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches have been developed in dentistry, dental materials representing a fundamental aspect of clinical practice. Novel biomaterials and technologies have been developed to diagnose and treat diseases in the oral and maxillofacial areas, increasing the accuracy of diagnoses and making planned treatments more precise.
The principal aim of this Special Issue is to promote papers including molecular and in silico data of innovative advances in and knowledge of oral diagnoses, basic and applied characters that focus on the properties or performances of dental materials or the reactions of host tissues to materials, along with diagnostic and therapeutic technologies in the orofacial fields of oral medicine, oral biology, oral microbiology, and oral bioengineering from a molecular point of view. Researchers conducting studies on these topics are invited to submit original research articles and reviews.
Works regarding molecular, biological, cellular, and material research with a basic perspective are encouraged.

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. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. 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.
