Research
- In my research, I focus primarily on new digital technologies that use 3D methods and the application of algorithms or artificial intelligence. I use
these new techniques mainly in clinical projects in the following:
- Skeletal anchorage, a method where we can control tooth movements with the help of tiny screws in the jawbone.
- Health economic evaluations, where we analyze what cost or savings the introduction of a new treatment method entails.
- Registry studies with a focus on epidemiology and socio-economics.
- Measurement methods with a focus on 3-dimensional techniques.
