Overview
Restorative dentistry is the field of dentistry concerned with repairing or replacing damaged, decayed, or missing teeth to restore their function, structure, and appearance. It employs a range of materials and techniques, including fillings, composite resins, crowns, bridges, veneers, and implants, to rebuild tooth structure lost to caries, trauma, or wear and to improve oral health and aesthetics. Central to the discipline are the dental materials themselves and the procedures used to place and cure them, since the durability, fit, and biocompatibility of restorations determine long-term clinical success. Research in Dentistry And Oral Implants advances restorative care by evaluating materials, curing methods, and clinical techniques. Related peer-reviewed work in this collection includes a clinical case report on ceramic laminate veneers used in multidisciplinary dentistry and a study of composite photopolymerization examining how light source and dentin thickness affect temperature increase during curing, reflecting attention to restorative materials and procedures. This page gathers open-access research relevant to restorative dental treatments, materials, and techniques, supporting study of how damaged and missing teeth are repaired and replaced within modern dentistry.
