Our collection aims to comprehensively explore biomarkers, defined as measurable indicators of biological processes, and their profound impact on revolutionizing diagnostic and therapeutic approaches in oral health. We are particularly interested in a diverse range of topics, including but not limited to saliva-based biomarkers, genetic markers associated with pulp and periapical inflammation, and the exploration of biomarkers in periodontal diseases and oral cancer.
Key Areas of Interest:
Saliva-Based Biomarkers:
Identification and validation of specific proteins, nucleic acids, and metabolites in saliva indicative of various oral conditions, such as periodontal diseases, caries, and oral cancers.
Technological advancements and methodologies for the efficient extraction and analysis of salivary biomarkers.
Genetic Markers in Dental Diseases:
Exploration of genetic markers associated with orthodontic problems, enamel defects, temporomandibular disorders, and their interplay with epigenetics.
Insights into the interplay between genetic factors and environmental influences, to pave the way for personalized treatment strategies based on an individual's genetic profile.
Contribution to Comprehensive Understanding:
The amalgamation of diverse perspectives in this Research Topic will contribute to a profound and comprehensive understanding of biomarker research in dentistry. We believe that the insights shared will offer valuable perspectives on diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic dimensions of oral health.
Keywords:
Biomarkers, Molecular Signatures in Dentistry
Important Note:
All contributions to this Research Topic must be within the scope of the section and journal to which they are submitted, as defined in their mission statements. Frontiers reserves the right to guide an out-of-scope manuscript to a more suitable section or journal at any stage of peer review.
