Anas Baghareeb is a dual-specialty resident in Periodontics and Orthodontics and a Master of Science in Oral Biology candidate at the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine. His work sits at the interface of periodontics and orthodontics, where he studies how periodontal hard and soft tissues can be protected and enhanced during orthodontic tooth movement.
His research interests include surgically facilitated orthodontic therapy (SFOT) and periodontally accelerated osteogenic orthodontics (PAOO), periodontal phenotype modification, guided bone and tissue regeneration, and the biology of the temporomandibular joint. His master's thesis is a cross-sectional CBCT study of degenerative TMJ changes and their craniofacial adaptations, reflecting a broader interest in three-dimensional imaging and skeletal and dentofacial diagnosis.
He has published on surgically facilitated orthodontic therapy, cephalometric outcomes of expansion versus extraction treatment, and dental biomaterials, and has presented case-based research on surgical phenotype modification at national meetings. Across clinical care, teaching, and scholarship, his aim is to advance evidence-based, interdisciplinary approaches that combine periodontal and orthodontic expertise to improve function, esthetics, and long-term stability for patients with complex and craniofacial needs.
