TheSchool/Hospital of Stomatology of Shandong University is a center for dental scientific research and clinical technology innovation in Shandong province. The research platforms include Shandong Provincial Key Laboratory of Oral Tissue Regeneration and Shandong Engineering Laboratory for Dental Materials and Oral Tissue Regeneration. The school/hospital has also established several research directions such asbasic research and clinical transformation of oral tissue engineering,study on host factors of oral tissue engineering and safety evaluation,mechanism of hard tissue occurrence and related diseases,skin tissue engineering studies,and research on OralMicroecology.
Research Teams:
BasicResearch andClinicalTransformation ofOralTissueEngineering
The differentiation mechanism and function of stromal stem cells from different sources were studied by using the new techniques of modern cell biology, molecular biology, and various fundamental researches.
Study onHostFactors ofOralTissueEngineering andSafetyEvaluation
Thisfield of research establishes systematic and valid evaluation techniques and methods. Systemic factors play an essential role in tissue engineering to repair tissue defects, and the long-term effectiveness and safety of exogenous cells and biomaterials are the focus and difficulties in this field.
Mechanism ofHardTissueOccurrence andRelatedDiseases
Thisfield of research explores the associated opinions and tools of the incident, development, and repair of oral diseases, based on the fundamental theories and methods ofBoneMetabolism. The team carries out work on drugs, inflammatory factors, mechanical forces, and other factors toachieve a combination of clinical research and primary research bya comprehensive consideration of periodontal disease, temporomandibular joint, orthodontic tooth movement, and other common clinical diseases.
SkinTissueEngineeringStudies
Thisfield of study focuses on the cell and molecular mechanism related to skin regeneration, the related technology and method of skin stem cells to regenerate intact human skin and the pathogenesis of skin cancer.
Research onOralMicroecology
The main research direction includes oral flora and oral disease mechanism research, oral microecological diversity research, oral microecology in the pathogenesis of systemic diseases, oral pathogens prevention and control, and other aspects.
