Next-Generation Dental Materials Engineering Joint Research Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A joint research lab that develops next-generation dental devices.
AboutAbout the lab
Bringing innovative technology into dentistry to develop next-generation devices
The Next-Generation Dental Materials Engineering Joint Research Lab aims to realize a healthy, long-lived society through research and development of next-generation dental devices that contribute to oral healthcare.
The lab is a joint research lab with GC Corporation. With the keywords "painless treatment," "highly aesthetic oral appearance," and "oral healthcare for older adults," it brings new technologies into the field of dentistry and aims for their clinical application.
The lab investigates the physical and engineering properties and the biological safety of materials used in devices that reconstruct missing teeth and bone.
It also develops test methods for assessing long-term durability in the oral environment.
Key terms

ResearchResearch themes
Through the development of next-generation dental devices that contribute to oral healthcare, the lab aims to realize a healthy, long-lived society. Its goals range from analyzing the properties and safety of materials to establishing new dental diagnostic methods and testing equipment technologies.
*Illustrative imageAnalyzing the properties and safety of devices
The lab analyzes the physical and engineering properties of dental devices that reconstruct missing teeth and bone, and investigates material design including handling characteristics, processing methods, and biological safety. It also develops test methods for assessing long-term durability in the oral environment.
*Illustrative imageNew materials and new diagnostic and testing technologies
The lab aims to conduct clinical application research by exploring new materials, and to propose new dental devices through safety testing. It also aims to establish new dental diagnostic methods and testing equipment technologies.
