Research

My research interests span dental science and education and highlight my diverse research since I have explored the efficacy of nanohydroxyapatite for bone tissue engineering and evaluated multidisciplinary faculty and post-graduates’ perceptions to understand the challenges and benefits of virtual teaching, aiming to improve educational practices post-pandemic. I have also worked on investigating the correlation to provide a non-invasive method for clinicians to estimate vertical dimensions of occlusion, enhancing prosthetic outcomes and patient satisfaction. My goal is to continue advancing these fields through interdisciplinary research approaches.
