Adhesion is central to most restorative treatments. The team is a leading academic reference for adhesive dentistry, developing in vitro protocols and offering practical guidelines. Research includes evaluating adhesives used in orthodontics—an area where innovation has lagged compared to prosthetic dentistry. The team studies new bonding agents, such as “universal” adhesives and those offering additional benefits (e.g., caries prevention), which could improve orthodontic outcomes significantly.
