Research Interests

Dr. Bartlett’s research has focused on understanding dental enamel development and the gene expression program that is required to form teeth. He has a particular interest in a gene called “matrix metalloproteinase-20” (MMP20), and he also is investigating the molecular events that cause dental fluorosis and the cellular interactions that are required for healthy enamel formation.
