Outline

Dental materials are required to safety, functionality, and esthetics. In our laboratory, we are developing new dental materials made of glass, ceramics, polymers, and their composites, and applying novel analytical techniques to diagnosis and safety evaluation of dental and biomaterials.

Research

1. Analysis of Dental and biomedical materials and biological tissue using the synchrotron radiation.
Research is aimed to apply the new analysis method using synchrotron radiation for the estimation of various properties of the dental and biomedical materials.

2. Development of the functional dental and biomedical materials using glass and ceramics.
Research is aimed to develop and evaluate the new glass and ceramics based materials as the dental and biomedical materials, e.g. composite resins, glass ionomer cements, dental porcelains and zirconia ceramics.
