About this Research Topic
The expanding aesthetic demands of patients and the desire for fixed implant-supported rehabilitation have spurred remarkable developments in tissue regeneration techniques and biomaterials. Despite the success of hard tissue regeneration via practices like Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) and bone augmentation using native bone plates, the invasiveness and lengthy treatment duration warrant further exploration of better alternatives.
This Research Topic investigates opportunities for less invasive, more rapid procedures through cutting-edge digital dentistry technology. With digital tools, it's possible to optimize the planning phase of treatment, minimize surgical errors, and enhance operational flow. These advancements trigger a domino effect, creating faster procedures, improved predictability, and greater patient satisfaction.
Moreover, the theme casts the spotlight on newly introduced biomaterials' cellular analysis, advancing the development of regenerative procedures. We are open to submissions from both clinical and in vitro research. Contributions should not just focus on the tissue regeneration, but also the debate on exploitation of native bone rehabilitation as an alternative.
We seek to examine the dynamics of hard and soft tissue regeneration using autologous tissues or synthetic derivatives and heterologous tissues, potentially aided by digital technologies. This includes research on bone and soft tissue augmentation, surgical techniques to possibly avoid tissue grafting, with an emphasis on the emerging digital technologies. Together, we aim to redefine the future of implant rehabilitation and regenerative techniques to benefit practitioners and patients alike.
