Saroash Shahid

Dr. Saroash Shahid is a Senior Lecturer in Dental Biomaterials and Dental Anatomy at the Institute of Dentistry, Barts and the London School of Medicine and Dentistry, Queen Mary University of London. He has held this position since 2015, following roles as a Teaching Fellow (2012-2015) and Post Doctoral Research Associate (2010-2012) at the same institution. His academic journey includes:

• BDS from Isra University, Pakistan (2004)
• MSc in Dental Materials from Queen Mary University of London (2005)
• PhD in Dental Materials from Queen Mary University of London (2010)

His research focuses on innovative dental biomaterials with emphasis on:

• Development and optimization of glass ionomer cements for improved mechanical properties and clinical performance
• Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) applications for caries management and remineralization
• Hydroxyapatite interactions with therapeutic agents
• Novel bioactive materials for tooth desensitization and restoration

Recent publications demonstrate a strong focus on material innovation for restorative and preventive dentistry, particularly analyzing the chemical kinetics of SDF, mechanical properties of glass ionomers, and clinical efficacy of caries management techniques. Over 65% of his recent work involves in vitro characterization of material-tissue interactions.
