He was appointed a professor a.c. at the University of Genoa in 2014-2020 where he taught the Advanced Masters Degree course in oral laser applications and he lectures on oral laser applications Worldwide
In 2012 he was awarded the prestigious Fellowship award of the International Academy of Dento-Facial Esthetics. Dr Cronshaw is on the editorial peer review panel of the journals Lasers in Medical Science and Photochemistry and Photobiology and also is a Board member of Laser Education International. His clinical interests are in phototherapy, aesthetic dentistry, holistic dental care, minimally invasive dentistry as well as the application of laser therapy as an adjunct to tissue regeneration and pain management in periodontics and surgery. In collaboration with his co-Director Professor Steven Parker, he runs a highly active laser training academy offering a variety of dedicated oral laser training programmes.
Dr Cronshaw has written over 26 recent peer reviewed scientific papers on the clinical applications of lasers in dentistry and he is actively involved in continued research. Dr Cronshaw is a contributory author and provided a chapter on orthodontics in the best-selling textbook “Lasers in Dentistry: Current Concepts” ,editors Steven Parker and Don Coluzzi, published by Springer in October 2017. He is the author of a chapter on photobiomodulation in the second edition of the Springer textbook which was published in January 2024.
Dr Cronshaw has recently completed his studies for a doctorate at De Montfort University. As a researcher and active clinician Dr Cronshaw has studied the literature and has conducted and published original primary research on the application of photobiomodulation therapies. He has an interest for very many medical clinical applications including oncology, sports physiotherapy, CNS disorders, peripheral neuropathic syndromes and the management of failed wound healing.
Most recently he presented a number of papers to the World Association of Photobiomodulation Therapies (WALT) in London on the use of LED devices in PBM as well as an update on dose delivery parameters in PBM. In March he presented on combination PBM therapy and cryotherapy at the World meeting of the International Association of Dental Research (IADR) in New Orleans. Last year he presented at the World Federation of Laser Dentistry meeting in Wroclaw, Poland on aspects of dosimetry in photobiomodulation therapies. His current research involves trans- national collaboration with groups involved in oral medicine, oncology and sports physiotherapy in France, Spain, Syria and Italy. As a leading international figure in research and development into PBM therapies he has a particular interest in the practical aspects of PBM management.
During the recent Covid-19 crisis he founded a UK national think tank Pandora Dental Training and Guidance Ltd. This has been influential in formulating a practical response to the challenges in general dental practice to the disruption caused by Covid-19. In recognition of his work, he was awarded UK National recognition in 2022 as one of the UK’s most influential dental professionals.
