Welcome!
Hello, Dr.Ma NG, and welcome to Wikipedia.

 * Hello Grayfell and thank you for your response! It is the first time I have contributed to the Wikipedia and I am quite excited, yet still learning on the procedures. I have made some additions in entries that I have professional expertise, namely the dental implant, edentulism and Mucositis, Peri-implantitis and Computer assisted surgery. The references I have used are of 3 different types, peer-reviewed publications from Pubmed, Consensus papers from Pub-med, non peer reviewed articles of translational research from the scientific blog of respective authors. I have done so not in the aim to spam, promote or advertise, but mainly to allow multiple sources all from the same scientific authors, both in the form of "raw" published research as well as translational and popular science. The documents cited in mattheos.net do not promote an event, service or product but rather elaborate on respective published concepts by the authors. Nevertheless, I  understand the use of references resides in the discretion of the editorial process of Wikipedia. Please let me know if I can be of any further help!

 * Thank you for clarifying.
 * Please carefully review Conflict of interest. As all of your edits cited Nikos Mattheos, this does appear excessive, but feel free to propose changes on the articles' talk pages.
 * I also strongly recommend you review Identifying reliable sources (medicine). As that guideline explains, we avoid primary sources (such as "raw" research). This is especially important for medical content.
 * More generally, we do not want multiple sources tied to the same author. Ideally, we want multiple independent sources from multiple authors. If a perspective is mainly coming from one author, that is often an indicator that it is undue weight for the larger topic. As an encyclopedia, our goal is generally to summarize more broadly
 * I hope that's helpful. Grayfell (talk) 21:03, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Dear Grayfell,
 * Thank you for your elaborate response! Indeed I think I need to dive deeper into the writing culture of Wikipedia at this stage. I will check the sources you mention and see how I can best contribute!
 * best regards
