Özlem İşman serves as a Lecturer in the Dentistry Services Department at Gaziantep University's Vocational School of Health Services since 2013. Her academic foundation includes a Doctorate in Oral, Dental and Maxillofacial Radiology from Şifa University (2013-2015) and a Dentistry Licence from Ankara University (2000-2005).
- Doctorate: Şifa University, Institute of Health Sciences, Oral, Dental and Maxillofacial Radiology (2013-2015)
- Licence: Ankara University, Faculty of Dentistry, Dentistry (2000-2005)
Her research focuses on dental radiology with emphasis on cone beam computed tomography applications, caries detection methodologies, and maxillofacial anatomy analysis. Key interests include orthodontic material interference in imaging, jaw bone morphology assessment, and diagnostic accuracy comparisons between radiographic techniques. She has contributed significantly to understanding Turkish population-specific anatomical variations.
Analysis of her 15 most recent publications reveals consistent specialization in dental imaging technology, particularly CBCT optimization and artifact mitigation. Her work bridges clinical dentistry with advanced radiographic diagnostics, addressing challenges in caries detection under sealants, orthodontic material interference, and anatomical landmark identification.
Prof. İşman actively participates in academic leadership as Department Head since 2019 and serves on university committees. She teaches core dental curriculum courses including Dental Radiology, Dental Morphology, and Radiation Protection Methods across multiple academic years.
- Association of Oral Diagnosis and Maxillofacial Radiology (2019-present)
- International Association of DentoMaxilloFacial Radiology (2019-present)
- European Academy of Dentomaxillofacial Radiology (2019-present)
Her professional development includes specialized training in CBCT, dental lasers, biostatistics, and botulinum toxin applications. Prior to academia, she practiced as a dentist at Özlem Alkan Clinic (2005-2011), establishing clinical expertise that informs her teaching and research.
