AboutAbout the lab
Studying diseases of the mouth and jaw for better treatment
Oral surgery is a department that studies the form, function, and disease mechanisms of the mouth, jaw, and face, centering on the teeth, periodontal tissue, and jawbone, and trains people who can devise and carry out better treatments.
Research uses a wide range of approaches, from genetic analysis to biomedical engineering using biomaterials and CAD/CAM, the introduction of AI, and epidemiological studies.
The goal is to bring research results back into clinical oral surgery.
