DDS from FORP-USP (1998), post-graduate, master's, doctorate, and post-doctorate in Pediatric Dentistry from FOP-UNICAMP (2004-2010; 2013-2015). She has international experience as a visiting fellow at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, USA (2002); in the clinical research training program (Summer Institute) at the University of Washington, Seattle, USA (2011); and as a Researcher fellow at the National Institutes of Health, NIH, Bethesda, USA (2011-2013). A dentist with over 20 years of clinical experience working in private and public settings (Santa Bárbara DOeste City Hall). She is currently a clinical assistant professor at University of Maryland, Dental School, Division of General Practice, Department of Comprehensive Dentistry and professor at São Leopoldo Mandic , where teaches post-graduate courses and coordinates the master's program in Integrated Dental Clinic. A passionate advocate for dental treatment for underserved communities, she has led and participated in programs throughout Brazil, including indigenous populations in the Amazon Rainforest. Research interests include the development of the next generation of nanotechnology-based dental materials. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Titanium dioxide nanotubes (n-TiO2) have been applied to dentistry to improve general properties of restorative materials. Our group has recently demonstrated that n-TiO2 may improve compression and wear resistance of conventional Glass Ionomer Cement (GIC), increase GIC hardness without affecting surface roughness, dentin micro shear-bond-strengh, and cell morphology as compared to GIC a…
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) has been suggested as a promising material in numerous applications including dental restorative materials. However, the influence of nanotechnology on physic-chemical and biological properties of glass ionomer cement (GIC) is not well established. Thus, this in vitro study investigates the influence of the addition of different concentrations of TiO2 nanotubes in …
Titanium dioxide (n-TiO2) nanotubes have been suggested as promising materials for several applications. In order to determine the impact of the addition of n-TiO2 on the physicochemical properties of glass ionomer cement (GIC), our research group carried out a series of in vitro studies (ARP FAPESP #2016/13786-0; 2019/14078-8). In general, the results obtained demonstrate that the presen…

It has been suggested that there are histological and functional distinctions between the periodontal tissue of deciduous and permanent teeth. Thus, we hypothesized that extracellular matrix of cementum from deciduous and permanent teeth display differences in the constitutive expression of genes/proteins involved with periodontal tissue homeostasis. Deciduous (n=6) and permanent (n=6) te…
