Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Shulan Xu"
- Shulan Xu's recent research primarily focuses on advanced dental technologies, including robotic-assisted surgeries and digital workflows, aimed at enhancing the accuracy and efficiency of dental implant procedures, as seen in studies like robotic computer-assisted implant surgery and autonomous robotic surgery for implant placement
- Another significant area of Xu's research explores the intersection of mental health and dentistry, particularly the relationship between insomnia and major depressive disorder, with findings highlighting abnormal brain activities in patients, indicating a need for interdisciplinary approaches in treatment
- Xu's work also includes systematic reviews on dietary patterns' impact on periodontitis and assessments of new materials and techniques, such as the use of xenogenic collagen matrices for keratinized mucosa augmentation and the effects of post-processing on 3D-printed denture materials, contributing to both clinical practice and material science in dentistry
