Professor Kebschull is Chair of Restorative Dentistry in the School of Dentistry in the Institute of Clinical Sciences and Honorary Consultant in Periodontics. In addition, he holds an adjunct position at Columbia University College of Dental Medicine.

His award-winning translational research links the clinical features and molecular foundations of periodontal and peri-implant diseases. Moritz is a module lead in the new NIHR Biological Research Centre.

To further develop the translation from basic research to the clinical setting and the market, Moritz acquired critical business skills in a top-ranked Executive MBA program. In line with this, he holds several collaborative research contracts with industry partners.

Professor Kebschull leads the Advanced Clinical Dental Practice Masters programme.

Prof Kebschull is member of the Executive Committee of the European Federation of Periodontology and will be President of this largest learned society for periodontology world-wide in 2024. Moritz is currently driving the development of evidence-based clinical practice guidelines in Europe. In the UK, he is senior author of the S3-level treatment guidelines for periodontitis.
