The development of a modern\r\nscientific infrastructure will enable scientific breakthroughs, knowledge gap analysis and design\r\nstudies to support planning and decision making in the field of dentistry.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-9f11233\" data-id=\"9f11233\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RESEARCH UNIVERSITY research group Modern technologies in Dentistry Medicine Main research area of the group Contemporary technologies in dental medicine and evaluation of their application &#8211; clinical, microbiological and experimental studies Leading researchers Prof. Dr. Nataliya Grancharova, Ph.D.- Faculty of Dental Medicine, Department of Pediatric Dentistry, MU \u2013 Sofia Assoc.
