Introduction
The training of postgraduate students includes their collaboration in tutored teaching with undergraduate students.
Pre-course requirements
No previous requirements
Objectives
To teach dentistry students to perform the different phases of endodontic treatment in vitro, using both monoradicular and multiradicular extracted teeth.
To learn about coronal and radicular anatomy and how to perform the access cavity
To learn the techniques of instrumentation
To learn about the different irrigators and their indications
To learn the different techniques of obturation and their indications
To reinforce Master's students' knowledge through teaching practice while also providing tools to enhance their oral expression skills in public.
To be able to work in a team, respecting others and fostering situations that maintain and enhance cooperation to achieve set goals.
Competences/Learning outcomes of the degree programme
Students will be expected to:
Acquire new knowledge and techniques autonomously and aspire to achieve quality in dentistry
Learn to share information with other healthcare professionals and work as part of a team
Transmit knowledge to graduate dental students
Solve any problems that arise or answer queries expressed by undergraduate students during their preclinical practices
Learning outcomes of the subject
Students will be expected to:
Answer any theoretical questions raised by undergraduate students
Solve problems that graduate students might experience during the performance of their pre-clinical practices
Syllabus
Isolating the operative field
Coronal and radicular anatomy in monoradicular and multiradicular teeth
Coronal openings
Access and location of root canals
Instrumentation techniques, instructions and managing different systems
Obturation techniques, indications and clinical management
Teaching and learning activities
In person
Master's students will each be in charge of 6-8 undergraduate and will guide them through their preclinical dentistry practice during the 15 weeks of classes.
They will teach the undergraduate students how to perform endodontic therapy, showing them how to avoid procedural errors during endodontic treatment.
Participation in the teaching process obliges students to analyse and understand concepts in greater depth.
Evaluation systems and criteria
In person
Continuous assessment of the student
