Killing biofilm – mission impossible?
Welcome to our next webinar on Thursday May 24th
Bacterial communities on teeth and mucous membranes are known as biofilms and cause caries and other infectious diseases in the oral cavity. As a clinician, there are different strategies and methods to implement to minimize or manage this problem in the treatment of patients.
In this webinar you will learn about:
- Dental biofilms and their properties
- Fighting biofilms
- Antimicrobials and caries
When?

Sign up today! We look forward to your attendance!
About the presenter
Microbial–material interactions and interactions with the host are the focus of my research. One project investigates how existing and novel materials may affect biofilm formation. Research on the use of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy as an alternative to conventional antibiotics for treatment of biofilm mediated infections is another area. I am participating in dental clinically oriented research with external collaborators in Norway and abroad.
