Research areas

The research at NIOM is interdisciplinary, meaning that researchers from all disciplines contribute their unique knowledge to the planning of new projects. The research at NIOM also benefits from our state-of-the art facilities. For practical reasons, the main responsibility for a project is then allocated to one of three research groupsL

Materials science

Toxicology and microbiology

Clinically oriented research

Research objectives

The Nordic Institute of Dental Materials (NIOM) is committed to ensuring that dental biomaterials are safe and effective. A primary objective is to conduct comprehensive research on biomaterials, encompassing all types of dental materials, including ceramics, metal alloys, and polymers, as well as their applications in clinical dentistry.

Research collaboration

In addition to our researchers and engineers conducting their own research projects, the institute is open to various forms of collaborative projects. Guest researchers and other collaborators are an important part of the implementation of the research conducted at NIOM.
