Dr. Max Listgarten is Professor Emeritus and former Chairman of the Department of Periodontics at the University of Pennsylvania. He holds a DDS degree from the University of Toronto and certification in Periodontics from Harvard University.  Dr. Listgarten has made significant research contributions to the structural biology of the periodontal tissues and the development and structure of bacterial biofilms on teeth.  He has also been actively involved in the application of this knowledge to the diagnosis of periodontal diseases and patient management. He has published over 250 articles and chapters in various textbooks and has lectured on these subjects throughout the world.

Dr. Listgarten has served on many committees of the American Dental Association, American Academy of Periodontology and American Association of Dental Research.  He has been a consultant to several federal agencies.  He has served on the editorial boards of many scientific publications, including all the major journals in Periodontology.  He is the recipient of numerous awards for his contributions to the field of Periodontology.
