Dr. Beata Sawczuk | Dentistry | Best Researcher Award

Medical University of Bialystok | Poland

Dr. Beata Sawczuk is a distinguished researcher in dental sciences and oral pathology, recognized for her significant contributions to understanding oral health, prosthetic rehabilitation, and oncological conditions of the oral cavity. With an h-index of 4, 9 scientific documents, and 63 citations , her work bridges clinical dentistry and biomedical research. Dr. Sawczuk’s research spans diverse areas, including oxidative stress markers in post-surgical cancer patients, the role of estrogen receptors in oral and vaginal mucosa, and the impact of oncogenic viruses in oral squamous cell carcinoma. Her publications in reputed journals such as Antioxidants, Pharmaceuticals, and International Journal of Molecular Sciences demonstrate an evidence-based approach to improving quality of life among patients with oral cavity cancers. A Fellow of the American Academy of Maxillofacial Prosthetics (AAMP) and the European Prosthodontic Association, she has also been a long-standing member of the Polish Dental Society and the Polish Chamber of Physicians and Dentists. Her professional interests include prosthetic rehabilitation after cancer surgery, analysis of oxidative stress biomarkers, and the development of innovative therapeutic approaches for oral tissue restoration. Through her multidisciplinary work, Dr. Sawczuk continues to advance prosthodontic science and patient-centered oral healthcare.
