Course content
Education syllabus of Clinical anatomy head and neck is meant for pregradual students of 3rd year students of Dentistry. Students get anatomicaly specific and extensive knowledge from systematic and clinic anatomy of head and neck regions accordance with orofacial topography, clinical and microscopic anatomy, histology and embryology. Main accent lay on target orofacial systems head nad neck e.g. orbital region, nose and nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, parapharyngeal regions.

Learning activities and teaching methods
Lecture, Monologic Lecture(Interpretation, Training), Dialogic Lecture (Discussion, Dialog, Brainstorming), Work with Text (with Book, Textbook), Methods of Written Work, Observation, Demonstration, Projection (static, dynamic), Training in job and motor Skils, Laboratory Work, Work Activities, Grafic and Art Activities, Activating (Simulations, Games, Dramatization)
Learning outcomes
Superficial and deep structures and spaces of orofacial region in head region together with associated neck regions. Specialized regions necessary for stomatologist are added, e.g. gingivodental region, dentoalveolar topography. The face bones´ fractures of the skull and x-ray anatomy are included too. The students gain basic knowledge of clinical anatomy of viscerocranium and neck which is bound to help them in consequent study of dentoalveolar and maxilofacial surgery.
Student knows and is able to practicly aplicate complex theoretical knowledge from dentoalveolar and maxilofacial regions that enable them to continue in studying of dental surgery.
