Overview

Ignace Naert is affiliated with KU Leuven in Belgium and focuses on dentistry with a particular emphasis on oral surgery and orthodontics. Their research spans several subfields, including oral surgery, orthodontics, complementary and manual therapy, general dentistry, and periodontics.

Naert's work extensively explores topics such as dental implant techniques and outcomes, dental radiography and imaging, orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics, temporomandibular joint disorders, dental research related to COVID-19, scientific and engineering research topics, and endodontics with root canal treatments.

Their recent publications demonstrate active engagement in the field of implantology and maxillary rehabilitation. Notable papers include:

  • Patient- and clinician-reported outcomes for the additively manufactured sub-periosteal jaw implant (AMSJI) in the maxilla: a prospective multicentre one-year follow-up study (2021), published in the International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Radiographic Evaluation of Bone Remodeling after Additively Manufactured Subperiosteal Jaw Implantation (AMSJI) in the Maxilla: A One-Year Follow-Up Study (2021), published in the Journal of Clinical Medicine
  • Patient Satisfaction and Impact on Oral Health after Maxillary Rehabilitation Using a Personalized Additively Manufactured Subperiosteal Jaw Implant (AMSJI) (2023), published in the Journal of Personalized Medicine
  • Soft Tissue Response and Determination of Underlying Risk Drivers for Recession and Mucositis after AMSJI Implantation in the Maxilla (2023), published in The International Journal of Oral & Maxillofacial Implants
  • Randomized controlled trial comparing glass-fiber versus metal posts in single-crowned teeth: 15 Year follow-up (2025), published in the Journal of Dentistry

These publications have appeared in several specialized journals, including the International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Journal of Clinical Medicine, Journal of Personalized Medicine, The International Journal of Oral & Maxillofacial Implants, and the Journal of Dentistry.

Naert collaborates frequently with several researchers, notably C. Van den Borre, Marco Rinaldi, Björn De Neef, Natalie A. J. Loomans, and Erik Nout. These coauthors have been involved in multiple joint publications, pointing to sustained research partnerships.
