ImprimirResearch lines
1. Biocompatibility physical chemical properties and antimicrobial activity of techniques used in dentistry
Description: In vitro evaluation (physical-chemical, mechanical, SEM and microbiological) and in vivo (histopathological, immunohistochemistry, microbiological, gene expression, protein and cytokine qualification and evaluation of materials used in dentistry.
2. Clinical studies in dentistry
Description: Evaluation of the clinical performance of different materials and techniques recommended in dental practice through in vivo studies, situ studies, case studies randomised clinical studies and epidemiological studies.
3. Etiology and the treatment of pulp and periapical pathologies
Description: In vitro and in vivo investigation (humans and wild animals and knockout) of the etiological agents ( microbiological of the host and environments ) involved in pulp and periapical pathologies and the evaluation of the clinical and molecular aspects that act in the host response with the different techniques and materials used in endodontic therapies.
4. Research involving the Pediatric Dentistry/Orthodontics interface
Description: Evaluation of skeletal, dental and occlusal changes in children and adolescents before and after treatment. In addition, evaluations of the different materials and techniques used in interceptive and corrective orthodontics through clinical studies and using experimental animal models and in vitro evaluation are carried out.
5. Prevention in dentistry
Description: Evaluation of the effectiveness of different preventative protocols, an evaluation of microbial contamination of toothbrushes, pacifiers, orthodontic accessories and the effectiveness of disinfection methods, an evaluation of the structure and composition of both deciduous and permanent teeth, detecting variations, including genetic ones that can interfere in the susceptibility to dental caries.
