Dental Materials (DM)

Dental Materials is a distinguished bimonthly scientific journal established in 1985 and published by Elsevier Inc. on behalf of the Academy of Dental Materials. With both print (ISSN 0109‑5641) and online (E‑ISSN 1879‑0097) formats, it disseminates cutting‑edge research on the development, evaluation, and clinical application of materials used in contemporary dentistry. The journal’s core mission is to foster rapid communication of materials science insights to dental researchers, clinicians, and industry partners, addressing both basic properties and translational performance. Its scope spans mechanical and biological characterization of polymers, ceramics, composites, and metals, as well as studies of host‑material interactions, material degradation, and innovations in fabrication methods. Edited by leading expert David C. Watts, PhD, the journal maintains rigorous peer review standards and serves as a central forum for research that directly influences dental practice and biomaterials development. While direct editor email contacts are not publicly provided, authors and reviewers engage with the editorial team through Elsevier’s online submission systems. Dental Materials plays a key role in advancing interdisciplinary dental science and informs evidence‑based application of biomaterials in restorative and preventive dentistry.
