Our innovative, multidisciplinary research brings cutting-edge science to use in patient care.
Advancing Oral Health Research
Our scientists collaborate with clinicians and research teams worldwide. We work across multiple medical and dental disciplines to find new treatments. Our research advances the knowledge of oral health, biomaterials, cancer, pain and more.
When we can share solid evidence with our counterparts across the country regarding best practices and therapies, we can make better decisions for patients regarding common issues affecting oral health.
