Restorative dentistry is fundamental to rehabilitating teeth affected by decay, trauma, or disease, restoring both function and aesthetics. This field encompasses a wide array of procedures, including dental fillings, crowns, bridges, inlays, onlays, and implant-supported restorations. The focus lies on preserving as much natural tooth structure as possible while utilizing materials that mimic natural enamel and dentin properties. Modern restorative dentistry is increasingly reliant on digital impressions, computer-aided design/manufacture (CAD/CAM), and evidence-based protocols to ensure durable, aesthetically pleasing outcomes.
At the Journal of Dentistry: Oral Health & Cosmesis, we prioritize research that drives restorative dentistry forward through innovations in biomaterials, nanotechnology, and adhesive dentistry. Manuscripts exploring longevity of restorations, advancements in restorative techniques, and the use of bioactive materials for enhanced remineralization are highly encouraged. Contributions that bridge restorative treatments with preventive strategies for sustainable oral health are particularly significant to our readership.
