Odontology and Maxillofacial Surgery

Research leader Andreas Thor. Photo: Mikael Wallerstedt
The region of Uppsala has a long tradition of conducting research in all nine specialties of dentistry. Oral surgery at Uppsala University Hospital and the Public Dental Service conducts research in accordance with the overall research strategy in the Uppsala region and the internal strategies for research and business planning in their own administrations. The research projects are within one of the strategic program areas, which are nursing, prevention, diagnostics, disease treatment and rehabilitation/reconstruction.
In 2020, the research group for Odontology and Maxillofacial Surgery was created at the Department of Surgical Sciences, Uppsala University. The research group is a collaborative project between Jaw Surgery (VO plastic and jaw surgery) at Uppsala University Hospital, Folktandvården and Uppsala University and aims to gather the odontological research in the region under one roof.
