Interface Oral Health Science 2009: Proceedings of the 3rd International Symposium for Interface Oral Health Science, Held in Sendai, Japan, Between ... MA, USA, Between March 10 and 11, 2009

The Tohoku University Graduate School of Dentistry has proposed Interface Oral Health Science as the main theme of next-generation dental research since 2002. That theme is based on the new concept that healthy oral function is provided by biological and biomechanical harmony among three systems: oral tissues, parasites, and biomaterials, and that oral diseases are interpreted as "interface diseases" caused by disruption of the intact interfaces among those systems.
