We will contribute to rapid progress of regenerative dental medicine and regenerative medicine by promoting practical use of innovative techniques for tooth regeneration.

Research Focus

  1. To promote innovative endodontic treatment using novel regenerative endodontics and to establish the department as a center for standardization and expansion of this therapy.
  2. To produce a super-aging society in which the elderly population has good health through improvement of teeth longevity and promotion of the 8020 Movement*. *to encourage Japanese people to achieve the goal of keeping at least 20 of their own teeth until the age of 80.
  3. To contribute to a super aging society in which elderly people live long and healthy lives based on regenerative therapy for vascular and neurogenic diseases harnessing dental pulp stem cells.
