Institute of Prosthodontics

DisciplineDescription:Prosthodontics isadental specialty pertaining to the diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation and maintenance of the oral function, comfort, appearance and health of patients with clinical conditions associated with missing or deficient teeth and/or oral and maxillofacial tissuesbyusing biocompatible substitutes.

Prosthodontics is one of the nine dental specialties recognized by the American Dental Association.Its graduate programsconsist ofclassroom lectures and seminars, laboratory and clinical training in esthetics/cosmetics, crowns, bridges, veneers, inlays, complete and removable partial dentures, dental implants, TMD-jaw joint problems, traumatic injuries to the mouth’s structures, congenital or birth anomalies to teeth. A prosthodontist is dedicated toprovidinghighest standards of care in the restoration and replacement of teeth. A prosthodontist isaskilled architect who can restore optimum function and appearanceof your teeth to makeyour smilemore beautiful.

Description ofPostgraduate Program

Thepostgraduateprogram prepares studentsfor theprofessionalclinical practice of prosthodontics and provides the basis for continuing professional development afterthecompletion of the program. There is an emphasis on complex reconstructive and aesthetic treatment using fixed, removable and implant prostheses. The program consists of core academic courses, specialist training in prosthodontics and a research thesis. The prosthodontics program is approved by the School of Stomatology, Shandong University.

The program focuses on the advanced study of the restoration and maintenance of teeth, oral function, andbeautythrough the use of single or compound materials, structures, and artificial devices.It includes instruction in implant dentistry, surgical procedures, denture design and fabrication, fixed and removable prosthodontics, restorative techniques, occlusion therapy and devices, geriatric dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, and tempromandibular joint dysfunction.

A. Personal Statement

Dr. Wu’s research focuses on proposing effective strategies to overcome the shortcomings of the existing dental materialstoimprove the oral healthy and quality of life. He has been devotinghimself to operatea series of studies on the development of new dental polymer materials including nanocomposites and adhesives for tooth restorations. These materials possess bioactive and therapeutic properties, with triple benefits of self-healing ability, antibacterial property and remineralization capabilityto heal crack and inhibit caries. His multidisciplinary team uses state-of-the-art processing/synthesis facilities, innovative materials engineering methods, and comprehensive measuring techniques to investigate physical and biological properties, antibacterial properties, biofilm growth and acid production etc. As a result, he has authored a lot ofvaluable andoriginal full-length articles in leading journals.

Apart from these research work andtechniques,he is also proficient in the operations ofdentalclinicalpracticeincludingcrowns, veneers,inlays,FPDs, RPDs, complete dentures,implant denturesand so on.
