IADR 2025 is the International Association for Dental Research’s (IADR) strategic plan for the future of oral health research. It outlines the organization’s goals and objectives for the next five years, with a focus on advancing scientific discovery, improving oral health outcomes, and promoting collaboration among researchers worldwide.
The plan is built on four pillars: discovery, innovation, collaboration, and impact. Discovery encompasses basic and translational research to understand the causes and mechanisms of oral diseases. Innovation involves developing new technologies, treatments, and preventive strategies. Collaboration fosters partnerships between researchers, clinicians, and industry to accelerate progress. Impact measures the plan’s success in improving oral health outcomes and reducing the burden of oral diseases.
