The prevalence of implantable medical devices has witnessed a significant rise on a global scale. However, a substantial portion of these procedures experience complications. In this presentation, strategic surface functionalization with bio-instructive properties is presented as a transformative approach to regulate biological reactions and direct the differentiation of stem cells through surface-attached biomolecules and hydrogels.

Professor Salomon is the Director of the UQ Centre for Extracellular Vesicle Nanomedicine, Head of the Translational Extracellular Vesicles (EV) in Obstetrics and Gynae-Oncology Group, NHMRC Investigator Fellow (EL2) and a worldwide authority on EV biomarkers for complications of pregnancies and ovarian cancer (>190 publications, H index 55, i10-index = 131, and >12k citations).

This one day course will provide participants with the knowledges and skills of everyday oral surgery. The will include extractions, impactions, breakages, instrument and suture selection, exposures, biopsies, pain control and closure of oro-antral communications.

Research Day showcases world leading dental research carried out by our Honours, Doctor of Clinical Dentistry (DClinDent), Higher Degree Research (HDR) students and research staff. It’s an innovative forum to come together and share our research findings with a wider audience, enabling networking and collaboration.

This year, the UQ School of Dentistry's annual Clinic Day, CPD event is on "Controversies in Contemporary Dentistry" which aims to provide dental professionals with an overview of the current controversies and debates in dentistry. The event is designed to facilitate discussions, critical thinking, and evidence-based decision-making on controversial topics in dentistry.

This seminar will show the findings of Belinda Nicolau's research on Human papillomavirus infection, drawing from a study conducted in India and Canada.

This presentation summarizes the most recent information regarding the use of hydraulic calcium silicate cements for vital pulp therapy, this in terms of dentin remineralization and pulp repair.  In addition, some side projects for instance the development of a next generation of biosafe composite, the curing profile of bulk-fill composites and the gelatinolytic activity of dentin upon adhesive treatment will be introduced. 

This session covers Dr Jiao Jiao Li's research on developing regenerative therapies for joint diseases, using osteoarthritis as a model disease.

Jonathan will provide an overview of past findings and plans for our upcoming assessment for age 52 of the Dunedin Multidisciplinary Health and Development Study (a cohort born in Dunedin (NZ) from their birth in the early 1970 to the present day).

This hands on course hosted by Dr Mariano Sanz will provide participants with the knowledge and skills of basic soft tissue augmentation around teeth and implants.

This is an exceptional opportunity featuring two international, high-profile periodontal researchers and educators, along with renowned local speakers. The workshop will provide up-to-date information and guidelines on periodontal management, including topics such as periodontal dysbiosis, biological plausibility, and clinical tips.

This is a masterclass in orthodontic 3D imaging and treatment and is suitable for both specialist and general dentists.

Dr Karan Gulati presents his research that showcases the potential of advanced implant nano-engineering via electrochemical anodization to fabricate nanopores (like nanoscale test tubes) on Ti dental implants to achieve tailorable bioactivity and local drug release.

This one-day clinical day course will include multidisciplinary aspects of Periodontics, Prosthodontics, Orthodontics, Oral Medicine, Special Needs Dentistry and Oral Maxillofacial Surgery.
