Services of the Research Center
The University of Zagreb School of Dental Medicine plans to offer the following research infrastructure services through its Research, Innovation and Science Center:
Contracted R&D
Our scientists can carry out R&D projects for dental materials on behalf of companies. Our experts are skilled in designing custom composite materials for various purposes and in characterizing physical and chemical changes under conditions similar to the oral cavity, already at the in vitro stage.
Analytical Services
The research infrastructure can be used for data collection, analysis, testing, or professional training for companies.
Access to Infrastructure
Certain devices within the infrastructure are highly sophisticated and require experienced, trained users. Access is therefore available at a fixed hourly/daily rate, but only for experienced scientists and under the supervision of trained staff of the Zagreb School of Dental Medicine.
Collaborative R&D
The School of Dental Medicine is open to collaboration with small and medium-sized companies on joint R&D projects for product development and characterization.
Consulting Services
Our scientists can offer their expertise in materials development to the dental industry, manufacturers of light-curing devices, the food industry, and manufacturers of oral hygiene products, for a consulting fee.
Subject of Scientific Testing
The following products may be subject to scientific testing:
Processes Studied by Scientists at the School of Dental Medicine
Industrial processes studied by scientists at the School of Dental Medicine include:
Methods Used by the School of Dental Medicine
The methods used by the School of Dental Medicine in its work, which it can offer within the scope of the DIGIT project, are:
Composite materials are the most commonly used dental restorative materials today. There is growing interest in developing bioactive composite materials that prevent secondary caries through ion release. This has been the main focus of experts at the Research, Innovation and Science Center for the past 20 years.
