The Gerodontology Lab studies how dental and oral health care should be provided for older adults. Through health care practice that involves interprofessional collaboration, such as outpatient care and home-visit dental care, the lab explores the contribution that dental and oral health care can make to society in a super-aged society. The lab also puts effort into epidemiological research that examines the relationship between dental and oral health and overall health and quality of life. The lab is part of the Department of Rehabilitation Dentistry in the Graduate School of Dentistry.

The Regenerative Dental Engineering Lab focuses on unresolved problems in clinical dental practice and conducts research to solve them from the perspective of regenerative biomedical engineering. Applying techniques for modifying titanium nano-surfaces and for regulating intracellular redox, the lab has been developing biomaterials that enable regeneration of the bone and periodontal tissue around implants and control of inflammation. The lab also focuses on the mechanical stimuli that cells receive, and uses mechanobiology to uncover the mechanisms of diseases caused by occlusal and masticatory forces. The lab also develops dental devices and educational support systems that combine AI and computer engineering.

The International Collaborative Innovative Dentistry Lab conducts research based on international industry-academia and cross-disciplinary collaboration, with the aim of improving oral health-related quality of life. In addition to developing and applying functional biomaterials and working on digital transformation (DX) in healthcare and education, the lab also studies the recycling of dental materials. The lab belongs to the Innovation Liaison Dentistry Department at Tohoku University Graduate School of Dentistry.

The Co-Creation Dentistry Lab conducts research centered on cross-disciplinary research and on industry-government-academia-citizen collaborative research. Through education in integrated knowledge, the lab aims to train people who can take a broad, interdisciplinary view of oral science. Through cross-disciplinary research, the lab develops medical materials such as nickel-free shape memory alloys, bioabsorbable metallic glass, and visible-light-responsive titanium oxide. The lab's staff and students include not only graduates of dental schools but also people from diverse backgrounds such as engineering, medicine, pharmacy, and the humanities.

The Data Science Lab centers on dental medicine and combines statistics, epidemiology, and information science to analyze data in dental medicine and health science. It uses real-world data such as claims data, health checkup data, long-term care insurance data, and community cohorts. The lab quantifies the burden and costs caused by oral diseases, and conducts health services research that evaluates the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of dental public health measures and healthcare services. The lab conducts joint research with researchers inside and outside the university, medical institutions, local governments, government agencies, and companies, aiming to bring its results back to policy and clinical practice.

The Tumor Biomedical Engineering Lab (Kodama Lab) focuses on the lymph nodes, where metastasis is found in many cancer patients, and studies the mechanisms and treatment of lymph node metastasis. Lymph node metastasis offers clues about how a cancer will progress, but its mechanisms are still not understood. The lab is developing the lymphatic drug delivery system (LDDS), a method that injects anticancer drugs directly into a lymph node and delivers them to the downstream lymph nodes. The lab has created its own “enlarged lymph node mouse,” which has lymph nodes the same size as those of humans, and uses it in its research.

The Functional Imaging Dentistry Lab studies the primary prevention of dementia, that is, preventing its onset. In a super-aged society, preventing the onset of dementia is an extremely important research theme, and in recent years an association between the oral environment and dementia risk has been shown. Dementia involves the brain and many other areas, and the lab studies it from many perspectives, including genetic factors, lifestyle factors, and the oral environment. The lab belongs to the Department of Oral Tumor Pathology (a cooperating department) in the Graduate School of Dentistry.

The Quantum Beam Dental Measurement Lab is developing new quantum beam (mainly X-ray) imaging technologies that visualize worlds that could not be seen before. The lab aims to establish a foundation for new dental knowledge and to return it to society and put it into practical use. Its main research themes include developing X-ray phase-contrast imaging methods, developing X-ray elastography methods that visualize elastic modulus at high resolution, and developing new X-ray image analysis methods and CT reconstruction methods. The lab is listed as a cooperating department of the Graduate School of Dentistry.

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.

The Advanced Free Radical Control Joint Research Lab studies how to apply the disinfecting action of reactive oxygen species generated by light to dental treatment. The lab researches disinfection technologies that shine light on hydrogen peroxide, a disinfectant, or on polyphenols found in plants to generate hydroxyl radicals. Using this technology, the lab developed a periodontal disease treatment device and demonstrated its efficacy and safety in an investigator-initiated clinical trial. The lab also evaluates materials for prosthetic devices made with dental CAD/CAM technology.
