Dr. Andrew Cameron is a dental technologist, clinician, researcher, and educator at Griffith University's School of Medicine and Dentistry, where he holds the position of Senior Lecturer in Dental Technology, School of Dentistry and Oral Health. A foundation student of the Bachelor of Dental Technology program, he possesses a Bachelor of Dental Technology (BDentTech), Master of Dental Technology (MDentTech) in Prosthetics, and Graduate Certificate in Higher Education (GCHE). His career at Griffith University commenced as a sessional demonstrator, followed by appointment as Lecturer in Dental Technology from July 2011 to December 2023, advancing to Senior Lecturer. As Program Director for the Bachelor of Dental Technology and Bachelor of Dental Prosthetics, he leads these programs, shaping curriculum and training future professionals.
Cameron's teaching specializes in removable prosthodontics across clinical and laboratory domains, with postgraduate focus on digital dentistry encompassing intraoral scanning, 3D printing, CAD/CAM processes, and implant planning. His research explores digital innovations in prosthodontics, such as trueness of additively manufactured complete dentures, simplified CAD/CAM extraoral surgical guides, novel CBCT volumetric analysis for endodontics, integration of intraoral scans with polyvinyl siloxane impressions for dentures, bar supports in CAD/CAM mandibular dentures, and bond strength of 3D-printed temporary crowns. Prominent publications comprise "Trueness assessment of additively manufactured maxillary complete dentures" (2022, Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry), "A novel volume based cone beam computed tomography volumetric analysis technique" (2021, Journal of Endodontics), "Do bar supports affect the accuracy of mandibular complete dentures produced using CAD/CAM technologies?" (2024), "3D Surface Analysis as a Method to Evaluate Progress of Students’ Mandibular Complete Denture Fabrication" (2025, European Journal of Dental Education), "A novel technique to integrate intraoral scans and polyvinyl siloxane impressions for improved complete denture fabrication" (2025), and "Factors influencing the bond strength of additively manufactured temporary crown materials in dentistry" (2024). He contributes to funded research and serves as an international speaker at symposia on digital dental technology, including the Digital Dentistry & Dental Technology Symposium and World Dental Congress.
