Nordic Institute of Dental Materials (NIOM) is a leading Nordic centre of excellence in research, innovation, testing, and standardisation.
The purpose of NIOM is to ensure safe and effective dental biomaterials for the Nordic population.
The institute conducts research, participates in standardisation and provides clinically relevant advice to the dental services and health authorities in the Nordic countries.
Research on biomaterials is a major part of the portfolio of work at NIOM, and we work to ensure that dental biomaterials are safe and effective. Our research involves collaboration with universities, institutes, and public dental services in the Nordic countries and globally.
Scientists at NIOM submit their research results for publication in peer-reviewed, scientific journals, both locally in the Nordic countries and internationally.
The Adverse Reaction Unit for Dental Biomaterials is a unit within NIOM. The unit investigates referred patients, provides information and research on adverse effects linked to dental biomaterials, and monitors reports in the national adverse reaction register.
