Machine-translated · View original
The lab studies crown, bridge, and implant treatment from the perspectives of biology and digital technology.

AboutAbout the lab
Research that feeds back into clinical practice
The Crown-Bridge and Implant Regenerative Prosthodontics Lab studies prosthodontic treatment using crowns, bridges (crown-and-bridge), and dental implants.
The lab focuses on dental biology, investigating the mechanisms and treatment of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (a disease in which the jawbone dies in connection with certain drugs) and the hard and soft tissues around implants.
It also works on digital technology using CAD and 3D printers, and on clinical research into bruxism, temporomandibular disorders, and sleep apnea syndrome.
The lab values basic and clinical research that can be fed back into actual patient care.
Key terms
- Crown-and-Bridge
- A crown that is placed over a tooth, and a bridge that spans the gap left by a missing tooth, using the teeth on both sides as anchors. Both are fixed prosthetic appliances.
- Medication-Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaw
- A disease in which the jawbone dies in connection with drugs such as those used to treat osteoporosis or cancer. Also called MRONJ.
- Bruxism
- Teeth grinding and clenching. It can occur during the day as well as during sleep.

View More ↗ResearchResearch themes
The lab conducts research that combines biology and digital technology, centered on crown-and-bridge treatment, dental implant treatment, and treatment of sleep apnea and bruxism. Using its own animal models and clinical data, it covers everything from basic research to clinical practice within a single, integrated framework.
*Illustrative imageDental Biology
The lab studies medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw, regenerative medicine centered on cell therapy, and changes in the hard and soft tissues around implants, from both basic and clinical perspectives.
*Illustrative imageImplants and Crown-and-Bridge
While refining implant treatment and crown-and-bridge treatment, which are the core of dental practice, the lab conducts basic and clinical research on implants. This area is closely connected with research on digital technology using CAD/CAM.
*Illustrative imageDigital Technology in Dentistry
The lab conducts research and practice applying the technologies that support the digital workflow to dental care, from digitizing data captured by sensors, to designing in 3D CAD, to fabricating with 3D printers.
*Illustrative imageMeasuring and Diagnosing Bruxism
Using ultra-compact wearable electromyographs, the lab measures bruxism during the day and during sleep to understand its actual state, with the aim of building a system that can diagnose it with high accuracy. It also explores the relationship between bruxism and sleep apnea syndrome, as well as bite force.
