Presentation

My research is focused on complications related to dental implants, with focus on peri-implantitis. The aim is to investigate the complex environment that develops in the dental implant pocket by mapping the interplay between bacteria, host responses and proteolytic activity. By using microbiological and proteomic analyses we strive to improve the knowledge about the complex niche that develops in peri-implantitis.

In addition, my research focuses on how oral bacterial consortiums interact and establishes biofilms on dental implant surfaces with different materials and surface treatments. The aim is to investigate how different materials and treatments affects bacterial adhesion, biofilms and expression profiles.
