The lab aims to restore oral function by replacing lost teeth with prostheses.

AboutAbout the lab
Aiming to restore oral function and quality of life (QOL) through clinical practice, education, and research.
The lab works in clinical practice, education, and research to maintain and restore oral function by using prostheses that replace lost teeth and tooth structure.
Prostheses include crowns, bridges, dentures, and implants, and they are used to restore patients' oral functions such as chewing, speaking, and improving appearance.
Its research covers maintaining the health of tissue around implants, the relationship between prostheses and oral function, regenerative medicine, and biomaterials.
The lab is one of the prosthodontics laboratories that have existed since the founding of the Faculty of Dental Science at Kyushu University, and since July 2024 it has carried out clinical care, education, and research under a new structure.
Key terms
- Prosthesis
- A device, such as a crown, bridge, denture, or implant, that replaces lost teeth or tooth structure and restores oral function

Starting from questions that arise in everyday clinical practice, it pursues both basic and clinical research.
*Illustrative imageResearch on prosthodontic treatment and oral function
Starting from questions that arise in everyday clinical practice, the lab seeks answers through both basic and clinical research. Its topics include maintaining the health of tissue around implants, the relationship between prostheses and oral function, evaluation of oral function, regenerative medicine, and biomaterials.
*Illustrative imageEpithelial sealing and regeneration around implants
Aiming to achieve an epithelial seal around implants, the lab conducts multidisciplinary regeneration research. Using an experimental implant model in rats and a model of pathological healing with mesenchymal stem cells, it also observes the biological response to a carbonate apatite bone graft substitute in both hard and soft tissue.
