My primary research interests are the study of the genetic-epidemiology of
periodontal diseases, and the study of associations between periodontal disease
and systemic conditions. I am studying the possible role of periodontal disease
in the mother as a risk factor for preterm delivery and other pregnancy
complications. I also study the effect of osteoporosis and estrogen use on the
periodontal and dental condition. Our research group also conducts
corporate-sponsored clinical trials in periodontics.
