Case Summary:
For this EB-2 NIW case, we worked closely with a student in the field of Dentistry who is specializing in Orthodontics. In his research endeavors, our client has improved dental and periodontal operations to treat numerous disorders of the oral cavity. He has studied the use of regenerative biomaterials for the treatment of bony periodontal and furcation defects, developed a new and improved protocol for infection control in dental practices, researched the link between low-dose oral contraceptive pills and periodontal health, reviewed the efficacy of small diameter implants, and created a socio-dental approach to orthodontic treatment practices. The importance of his work to the national interest was endorsed by an independent recommender, who stated, “The benefits of [Client’s] work to the public are felt most strongly in the area of dental medicine, where his work has led to a deeper understanding of highly modern dental medicine technologies. The work performed by [Client] in this area sheds light on the expanding role of integrated medical and dental advances for improving the public’s oral health, overall health and quality of life in the twenty-first century.” His cutting-edge research has culminated in authorship of 1 book, 6 published abstracts, and 13 peer-reviewed scientific manuscripts that were published in the top journals of his field. These publications have been cited 92 times by independent researchers worldwide, and the demand for his research has resulted in numerous invitations to present his work at highly distinguished international conferences, demonstrating the global significance of his contributions. Additionally, the cutting-edge nature of our client’s work has resulted in a patent. His research results have directly contributed to improved oral health and dental research that is essential to the United States’ healthcare. Consequently, his work has benefited the U.S. economy through the implementation of his research in various industries, including the pharmaceutical industry. With the extensive and thorough documentation that we provided, we were able to prove that our client’s technological advancements and continued research have substantial merits for our country and the scientific community as a whole, thus he has served the nation to a significantly greater degree than that of others with similar education and experience. We were met with success when his NIW petition was approved in 5 months and 13 days.
