Biography

My chief research interest is access to care for special needs patients and I am currently studying the epidemiology of oral health problems for this population. I am also interested in the prevention of head and neck injuries by utilizing protective mouth guards, as well as the application of principles of ergonomics for the prevention of injuries for dental professionals.
