The Dental Medical Informatics Lab studies methods and devices for dental diagnostic imaging, and image analysis using AI. Dental images have shifted from film to three-dimensional digital images produced by dental CT and intraoral scanners. Through the development of new dental diagnostic imaging devices and the use of medical information with AI and telecommunication technology, the lab aims to contribute to equalizing access to high-quality dental care. As the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Diagnostic Imaging at Tohoku University Hospital, the lab is also in charge of diagnostic imaging of head and neck tumors.

The Oral and Maxillofacial Reconstructive Surgery Lab is a division of the Tohoku University Graduate School of Dentistry that deals with reconstructive surgery of the oral and maxillofacial region. The lab's website is shared with the Oral and Maxillofacial Oncologic Surgery lab. Professor Kensuke Yamauchi's research fields are listed as oral regenerative medicine, dental biomedical engineering, and surgical dentistry. The listed research keywords include jaw deformities, reconstruction, implants, and temporomandibular joint surgery.

The Oral and Maxillofacial Oncologic Surgery Lab studies the diagnosis and treatment of tumors, including cancer, that arise in the mouth, jaw, and face. This region contains teeth and salivary glands, which are not found elsewhere in the body, and tumors specific to this region develop. Using methods from cell biology, molecular biology, genetics, and pathology, the lab conducts both clinical and basic research, aiming to create new diagnostic and treatment methods. According to the lab's introduction, oral cancer can be diagnosed by measuring miRNA in serum.

The Dental and Oral Anesthesiology Lab starts from questions that arise in clinical practice and conducts research aimed at developing new treatments. The lab studies treatments for bronchospasm, asthma, and COPD, the mechanisms by which orofacial pain arises, an AI-based automated anesthesia system, and ways to increase regulatory T cells. The lab accepts requests for tours of the hospital and lab, and consultations about entering graduate school, at any time.

The Comprehensive Dentistry Lab is a clinical department that aims to practice comprehensive dental care. It aims for appropriate diagnosis by also considering patients' background, such as their overall physical function, lifestyle habits, and social environment. It is also a place for clinical education of students in clinical training and for clinical training of postgraduate residents. Alongside patient care, the lab also pursues a wide range of research toward the advancement of "comprehensive dentistry."

The Oral Organ Anatomy Lab teaches the gross structure of the human body, particularly the anatomy of the head and neck, and conducts research on how teeth and the maxillofacial region take shape. In anatomy education, students acquire the most basic and essential knowledge for a dentist, deepen their understanding of the intricate structure of the human body through practical training, and also reflect on life, human dignity, and medical ethics. The lab was established in 1965, the year the School of Dentistry was founded, as the Department of Oral Anatomy.

The Oral and Maxillofacial Tissue Development Lab studies the development and repair of bone and teeth, targeting tissues closely related to dentistry such as teeth, bone, cartilage, and gingiva. The lab investigates when, where, and how molecules of the extracellular matrix surrounding cells function while bones and teeth are formed. The lab also explores calcification, the hardening of teeth and bone, from the perspective of the roles of cells and the extracellular matrix. In the School of Dentistry's education, the lab is in charge of courses on the tissue structure of the human body, the oral cavity, and teeth.

The Biomaterials Science and Engineering Lab is in charge of research and education in tissue engineering, biomedical engineering, and biomaterials science in the oral and orthopedic fields. The lab focuses on the regeneration of hard tissues such as bone, cartilage, and teeth. One of its goals is to create artificial tissue engineering approaches using new biomaterials developed to follow the mechanism by which hard tissues form in the body (biomineralization). The lab was founded in 2004 as the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Functional Reconstruction and took its current name in 2025.

The Oral System Prosthodontics Lab carries out clinical work, research, and education in removable partial dentures, dental implants, maxillofacial prosthetics, and dysphagia rehabilitation. In its research, the lab looks for ways to restore lost teeth or jaw tissue that consider not only shape but also function, the way forces are distributed, and the response of living tissue. Working with other fields and with companies, the lab measures bite force, analyzes changes in jawbone, and develops new materials and dental devices. The lab belongs to the Department of Rehabilitation Dentistry at the Tohoku University Graduate School of Dentistry.

The Molecular and Regenerative Prosthodontics Lab studies prosthodontics, the replacement of lost teeth with artificial materials, from the perspectives of molecular biology, biomaterials science, and regenerative medicine. The lab is in charge of crown and bridge prosthodontics at the undergraduate level, and it also provides treatment such as crowns, bridges, and implants at the Department of Occlusal Restoration of Tohoku University Hospital. The "Molecular and Regenerative" in the lab's name reflects the intention to respect conventional prosthodontics while introducing molecular interpretations from biology, materials science, and physical chemistry, together with regenerative medicine. The professor describes the lab as a gathering of members who are interested in creating new things.
