Antimicrobial Agents in Prevention and Treatment of Oral Diseases

Dear Colleagues,

The Special Issue “Antimicrobial agents in Prevention and Treatment of Oral Diseases” focuses on the use of antimicrobial agents in oral healthcare. Antimicrobial agents, including antiseptics, antibiotics and antifungals are commonly used to prevent and treat oral diseases, such as caries, periodontitis, and oral infections. The effectiveness of these agents in oral healthcare is a topic of ongoing research and debate, as their use can lead to the development of antimicrobial resistance and other adverse effects.

The Special Issue also covers a wide range of topics related to antimicrobial agents in oral healthcare, such as the efficacy of specific antimicrobial agents in preventing and treating oral diseases, and the safety and potential side effects of these agents. Additionally, we welcome submissions focusing on the development of new antimicrobial agents for use in oral healthcare.
