Learning outcomes
During the training the students' acquired knowledge and skills in the area of diagnosis and treatment of carious and non-carious defects of hard dental tissues are repeated and improved. During the training the issue of treatment of caries near the dental pulp as well as caries penetrating into the dental pulp is discussed. The students will also receive the knowledge in the field of diagnosis and treatment of common acute and chronic pathological conditions in endodontics as well as the basic principles of differential diagnosis of pain of odontogenic origin. During the practical trainings the student independently performs the examination and treatment of the patient with dentin pain, pulpalgia as well as acute and chronic inflammation of apical periodontium. During the practical trainings the magnifying technique will be also used. The training will also include the practice of diagnostic and treatment procedures of acute conditions realized at the Dental Emergency at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. This part of the practical trainings will be supervised by doctors of the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery.
Students are able to diagnose and treat teeth with dentine pain, as well as acute and chronic diseases of dental pulp and periodontium.
