Learning Outcomes
Knowledge
1.On successful completion of the course, students will be able to: • describe structure, functions and pathologies of dental hard tissues; • define local and general factors – microorganisms, carbohydrates, saliva, fluoride intake, dietary factors, socio-economic factors – in development of caries and other dental hard tissue disorders; • collect and recognise clinical manifestation of caries and other dental hard tissue disorders; • define aetiology and pathogenesis of periodontal disease; • describe classification of periodontal disease and recognise different types of periodontal disease; • memorize steps and sequence of diagnostic and treatment methods of periodontal diseases; • describe pathologies of pulp and periodontal tissue; • diagnose pulpal and periapical disease, perform satisfactory non-surgical primary root canal treatment; • make evaluation of the outcome and prognosis of the root canal treatment, restore endodontically treated tooth; • formulate the indications for endodontic retreatment.
Skills
1.On successful completion of the course, students will be able to: • select and apply appropriate method of caries and other dental hard tissue treatment, considering its limitations; • interpret data on the presence of different stages of the caries process and symptoms related to dental caries; • perform patient examination to diagnose periodontal disease; • assess prognosis for single tooth and for dentition; • diagnose and treat acute forms of periodontal diseases; • perform nonsurgical (conventional) methods of treatment, plan corrective and maintaining phases of treatment and assess results of treatment; • use different diagnostic tests. Practice of dental radiology in respect to endodontic treatment; • perform satisfactory non-surgical primary root canal treatment of single rooted and uncomplicated multi-rooted teeth, and emergency treatment; • perform emergency treatment; • prepare a treatment plan, accompanied by continuing general oral health preventive care; • evaluate results and prognosis of the treatment, anticipated complications and their prevention, modify the plan of treatment.
