Adhesive Restoration
Research Program

Specific Objectives:

The primary objectives of the Adhesive Research Program are to:

  • Support the development of minimally invasive dentistry by evaluation and validation of new restorative materials for use in adhesive dentistry.

  • Evaluate and characterize new adhesive technologies

  • Investigate the interaction between polymer based materials and the surrounding biological tissues.
