About Study Course

Objective

To develop students' skills in the clinic, diagnosing oral cavity pathology in a patient, using modern technologies, making a simple dental treatment plan for a real patient; to develop skills and abilities in clinical work by performing dentures on patients.

Preliminary Knowledge

Successfully completed study course Preclinical Course in Prosthetic Dentistry IV (ZPK_025). Successfully completed study course Prosthetic Dentistry - Clinic ZPK_015 (4.7.) Successfully completed study course Dental anatomy, craniofacial aspects of physics and bio-materials, medical emergency, radiology, normal physiology, oral pathology diagnosis, clinical pharmacology, prosthodontics clinic dental technical laboratory.

Learning Outcomes

Knowledge

1.On successful study course completion the students will be able to define the patient's problem and be able to explain the treatment plan in prosthetics for simple clinical situations. Students will be able to describe the stages of treatment, the applied treatment technology and the used materials, prosthetics tools, removable and non-removable making dentures. Will use knowledge of the use of digital technology in dentistry.

Skills

1.On successful study course completion students will be able to develop a simple clinical situations treatment plan in dental prosthetics and make prosthetic non-removable and removable dentures, working through the simple steps of clinical situations. Will know how to use intraoral scanners.

Competences

1.By developing a treatment plan students will be able to properly organize clinically obtained information, process and interpret it. When working with patients in clinic, students will be able to solve a variety of problem situations, making dental prosthetics in simple clinical situations. Students will be evaluate the use of intraoral scanners in various clinical situations.

4.7 at the end of the semester, there is a semester test, which is obtained if 3 colloquiums have been successfully completed during the semester, active work in seminars, all class tests have been passed, active work with patients, as well as completion of at least 1 prosthetic work unit with the patient (crown, inlay, total prosthesis, etc. ). 4.8 at the end of the semester, there is a semester test, which is obtained if 3 colloquiums, 3 class tests have been successfully completed during the semester, 5 homework has been completed and uploaded to e-studies, active work with patients, as well as completion of at least 1 prosthetic work unit with the patient (crown, inlay, total prosthesis, etc.). At the end of the course, a written exam – treatment plan for an unknown clinical case, theory questions, searching for errors in a given treatment plan.
