Regenerative biomaterials & tissue engineering

The human mouth and face contains a wide range of living tissues – including skin, oral mucosa, tooth, and bone – that all play a vital role in health.

Poor healing due to trauma and disease, or following corrective surgery therefore has a major negative impact on quality of life, and we therefore undertake world leading research into new biomaterials and tissue engineering approaches to promote healing and regenerate tissues to restore essential functions.
