Discussions regarding cientific research of atraumatic restorative treatment (ART)

Abstract

This visit aims to develop discussions on scientific research using the Atraumatic Restorative Treatment (ART). The visiting professor will discuss ongoing research, in partnership with the department and outlines future research projects and assist in the writing of articles from these researches. The visiting professor will also make visits to Barueri city, in which will clinical researches in partnership between the Faculty of Dentistry, University of São Paulo - FOUSP and Academic Centre for Dentistry Amsterdam - ACTA have been developed. In addition, the visiting professor will teach classes and also participate in graduate seminars Program of Dental Science, Dentistry concentration area. She will talk about the ART and its dissemination among developed and underdeveloped countries. In addition, the visiting professor will participate as examiner during the Master and PhD promotions. The partnership with ACTA has been established for a few years, including a number of scientific publications: * Bonifacio et al., 2009 Physical-mechanical properties of glass ionomer cements indicated for atraumatic restorative treatment.
