Research Interests
Enamel-adhesive interfacial phenomena and alterations during orthodontic treatment (structure, roughness, color, gloss). In vivo-ageing of orthodontic materials by means of surface analysis (Auger and ESCA, EDX and SEM) as well as mechanical properties of used dental and biomedical materials with associated clinical implications in bonding and mechanotherapy. Clinical trials assessing the efficiency of orthodontic materials. Development and testing of new adhesives based on non-Bis-GMA containing monomer systems (degree of conversion, bond strength monomer leaching). Corrosion potential and ionic release of alloys and leaching of polymeric materials in the oral environment. BPA release and estrogenicity of polymers. Mechanics of materials (strength, fatigue, bond strength) and tissues with reference to PDL properties in health, disease and developmental/ageing status.
