Curriculum Vitae | Publications by Prof. Troedhan

During his studies Prof. Troedhan already held the office of the Secretary General of the Austrian Medical Union and Regional Director Europe of the International Federation of Medical Students Associations (IFMSA). As Liasion Officer of the WHO he researched and developed concepts for "Peer Learning in Medical Education" strategies in medical education.

Professor Troedhan started his training as a double specialist at the University Clinic for Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery of the Health Science University Vienna in 1988 and at the Dental University in Vienna in 1991 and devoted himself scientifically to laser and cancer research. In 2001 he and his colleagues from Germany turned their attention to the development of reliable dental implant systems for all areas of application. Long before immediate implantation became mainstream after tooth removal, Prof. Troedhan was already highly successful in providing his patients with minimal invasive immediate implants as well as mini implants from his own development for the attachment of cover-dentures and fixed cemented crowns and bridges. In 2001 Prof. Troedhan was the first physician in Austria to introduce invisible braces.

In 2006 Prof. Troedhan founded the TKW-Research-Group with two German research partners. Beside Prof. Tommaso Vercellotti (Italy) he is regarded as one of the founding fathers of modern ultrasound surgery. In 2007 he was awarded the patent for the almost wound free ultrasonic sinus lift ("INTRALIFT") and he developed numerous other ultrasonic surgical procedures and instruments for almost wound-free jaw bone reconstruction surgeries. In 2008 he performed the world's first cosmetic ultrasound nose correction and in 2009 the cosmetic ultrasound chin correction. The main driver for his practice-oriented research and development has always been to guarantee his patients the best possible care with the lowest possible risk of complications and postoperative pain. Prof. Troedhan is also one of the founding fathers of the International Academy of Ultrasound Surgery and Implantology.

In 2009, Prof. Troedhan was appointed to the "Biomaterial Experts Group" (Switzerland) and within the framework of this international expert group is dedicated to the further development and application of synthetic bone implants for almost wound-free bone-augmentation procedures for dental implant insertion.

His research results have consistently been published in international top journals in the field of craniomaxillofacial surgery and dental implantology and Prof. Troedhan sacrifices a large part of his weekends to give lectures and practice courses worldwide on invitation of universities and international professional associations in the field of cosmetic facial surgery, oral surgery and dental implantology. In his scientific work and teaching he holds the position of an Associate Professor at the Health Science University Vientiane and Alexandria University.

Prof. Troedhan is also co-editor of the "International Journal of Oral and Craniofacial Science" (IJOCS), the "International Journal of Surgery and Surgical Procedures" (IJSSP) and Editorial Board member of the "Alexandria Dental Journal", published by Alexandria University and honorary member of numerous professional societies for his services to practice-oriented research and teaching.
