Ivana Nedeljkovic serves as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Dental Material Sciences at the Academic Centre for Dentistry Amsterdam (ACTA). Her academic role integrates teaching responsibilities across clinical dentistry courses with cutting-edge research in dental biomaterials development and evaluation.
Her research profile centers on Dental Caries prevention through innovative material solutions, Biofilm inhibition mechanisms, and Surface Properties of dental restorations. She investigates bacterial adhesion dynamics (particularly Streptococcus mutans), material corrosion resistance, and mechanical performance using advanced methodologies including scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and real-time polymerase chain reaction.
Analysis of her recent publications reveals a cohesive research trajectory toward multifunctional dental materials that simultaneously address structural durability and biological challenges. Her work consistently bridges Restorative Dentistry and Biomaterials Science, focusing on zirconia prosthetics, caries infiltrants, and bioactive adhesives with antibacterial properties. This approach targets critical clinical failures like secondary caries and bracket corrosion while optimizing material-biological interfaces.
