• Key affiliations: University of Granada, Dialnet CRIS
• Academic identifiers: ORCID, Scopus, OpenAlex

Research Interests: Her work focuses on biofilm dynamics in oral infections, antimicrobial therapies for caries and periodontal diseases, and preventive dentistry strategies for vulnerable populations. She has pioneered studies on chlorhexidine varnishes and fissure sealant longevity.

Article Trends: From 1987-2020, her research evolved from bacteriocinotyping of Streptococcus mutans to bioethical dental practices and 3D bioprinting applications. Recurring themes include biofilm analysis, dental caries epidemiology, and endodontic irrigation solutions.

Advising Legacy: She has supervised 15 doctoral theses on topics like biofilm eradication, root canal disinfection, and temporomandibular joint prosthetics. Her students now lead research in oral oncology and dental biomaterials.
