Presentation
Presentation
The world of dental prosthetics is currently undergoing a revolution thanks to the incorporation of digital systems. The evolution of adhesion techniques and the use of new materials has seen this aspect of dentistry evolve even faster.
The UIC's clinical residency programme in prosthetics is based on the need for dentists to constantly stay up to date on the latest knowledge required for dental prosthetics. The course programme will be offered through digital and traditional methods, focusing on new concepts in minimally invasive dentistry, such as restorative methods based on adhesion or the use of new materials that require less tooth reduction, in addition to covering both fixed and removable traditional prosthetics, which are useful in everyday practice.
Clinical sessions will be held to discuss patient cases that will later be treated in the clinic by students, under the tutelage and with support from encouraging professors who are trained in the latest techniques. There will also be theory seminars, which will start by covering basic and traditional concepts related to fixed tooth-supported prosthetics and removable prosthetics. Later, the theory sessions will advance towards more modern concepts including digital technology, adhesive restoration and new materials and techniques used to produce more modern dental prostheses.
Curriculum
Facilities
The Faculty of Dentistry has the University Dental Clinic (CUO) as the main training center for its students. Currently, at the Sant Cugat Campus, we have the following facilities:
-
UIC Barcelona’s University Dental Clinic (CUO)UIC Barcelona’s University Dental Clinic (CUO) has 88 dental care booths, all equipped with cutting-edge technology, including:
68 general dentistry care booths
4 care booths for special-needs patients
16 surgery care booths
Care booths for conscious sedation
Agreement with the Hospital Universitari General de Catalunya (HUGC Quirón) to treat patients under general anesthesia -
Clinical Simulation and New Technologies ClassroomNew clinical simulation classroom: with this step, virtual reality is introduced into student training, enhancing their education while also serving as a valuable tool in new teaching methodologies. This is another step forward in innovation and the improvement of student training. This laboratory, together with the preclinical laboratory, allows students to practice dentistry with great realism before working on actual patients.
-
Exclusive Laboratory for CAD CAM TechnologyPioneers in digital dentistry, the Faculty has embraced digitalization and, among other resources, has an exclusive laboratory for CAD CAM technology. The equipment in this laboratory includes milling machines, intraoral scanners, 3D printers, design software, a ceramic furnace, a zirconia sintering furnace, CBCT and iCat, Teckscan, Z4 laptops, and Z4 computers.
-
State-of-the-Art Prosthetic LaboratoriesUIC Barcelona’s Dentistry Clinic has two advanced prosthetic laboratories equipped with the latest digital imaging technology. These laboratories provide students with access to cutting-edge tools across all areas of dentistry, from prosthesis design and manufacturing to treatment planning and execution. With this high-end equipment, future professionals can practice and refine state-of-the-art techniques, preparing them to excel in a highly competitive professional environment.
-
Research LaboratoryUIC Barcelona has six modern laboratories, one of which is specifically dedicated to dental research. This space allows students and professionals to conduct advanced studies and innovative projects, driving the development of new techniques and treatments in the field of dentistry. Additionally, the other laboratories provide practical and simulation environments that complement training, ensuring that students gain a comprehensive and high-quality experience in all aspects of their academic education.
-
Preclinical LaboratoryThe preclinical laboratory, a high-tech facility, features 95 dental simulators equipped with phantom heads—tools that simulate the oral cavity—as well as X-ray machines and digital radiology equipment for hands-on dental training.
