Scientific-technical goals:
  • Estudiar aspectos diagnosticos y terapeuticos de la patologia dental, odontologia conservadora y endodoncia.
 
Research lines:
  • Systems for Guided Remineralisation and Comprehensive Regeneration of the Dentin-Pulp Complex.Dental biomineralization is the biological process by which pulp and periodontal pluripotent cells control the precipitation of hydroxyapatite crystals. Bioregeneration, on the other hand, seeks to restore vitality and function to lost tissue.
  • Integration of Haptic Ecosystems and Deep Learning Algorithms for the Optimisation of Clinical Competence in Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics.Development and validation of digital tools for training dentists. Haptic simulation allows students to feel the difference in hardness between enamel, dentin, and decayed tissue through a robotic arm. AI acts as a personalized tutor, analyzing in real time the precision of drilling, the depth of a cavity, or the trajectory of a file in a root canal, providing immediate feedback that accelerates the learning curve without putting real patients at risk.
  • Dentistry in primary care.Dental pathology: epidemiology, clinical manifestations, diagnosis and treatment. Quality of care and user satisfaction.
  • Endodontics.Endodontic materials. Irrigation techniques. Root canal preparation and obturation procedures. Material/dental tissue interface studies. Pathology of the dentin-pulp complex and its periapical complications.
  • Dental bleaching.Diagnosis and treatment of dental colour pathology. Colorimetry. In vivo and in vitro studies on bleaching agents and procedures.
  • Operative dentistry.Biomechanics of intraradicular pins. Materials and techniques for dental restoration. Tooth reconstruction with root canal treatment.
