About

Dr. Purnima Kumar is the Najjar endowed professor at the University of Michigan, USA. Her research focuses on the dynamics of oral biofilms, community interactions in peri-implant health, and the implications of artificial intelligence in dental education. Recent publications explore topics such as the effects of smoking on periodontal care cost-effectiveness and the impact of glycine powder air-abrasive debridement on peri-implant mucositis.
