Presentation

Implant-prosthetics is currently a very common part of a dentist’s daily work.

This course is intended for professionals who are familiar with basic implant-prosthetic terminology and who have performed or perform prosthetic implants and want to update or improve their knowledge of implant-prosthetic rehabilitation.

Assessment method

An online self-assessment test will be carried out at the end of the course so that students can assess the  achievement  of their personal goals and their knowledge of the content of the course.

Course objectives

• To provide the necessary knowledge to undertake the diagnosis, treatment plan and grounding for step-by-step development of the different stages involved in performing implant-prothetics
• To know the different types of implant prosthetics that can be performed and solutions for compromised cases.

Presentation

The dental hygienist is key in terms of the promotion of oral health, and plays an important role in all stages of periodontal treatment, from diagnosis, monitoring the risk factors of the disease, non-surgical periodontal treatment, long-term loyalty and oral maintenance.

Dental hygienists are members of the oral health team managing the patient, along with the stomatologist or dentist, and it is essential that they have a broad overview of dentistry to be able to make referrals.

Assessment method

An online self-assessment test will be carried out at the end of the course so that students can assess the  achievement  of their personal goals and their knowledge of the content of the course.

Objectives

1. To update professionals in the diagnosis and treatment of periodontal and periimplant disease.
2. To manage specific clinical procedures to resolve cases involving difficult access and technical complexity.
3. To review the most important concepts of scaling and root planing.
4. To learn the basic concepts of preventative dentistry.
5. Medical emergency management, special patient management and medical commitment.
6. To provide a comprehensive overview of medical-oral pathologies.

Ankyloglossia is a condition that has gained importance and attention thanks to the desire of many families to carry out exclusive breastfeeding and, upon encountering associated problems, seek a possible explanation for the difficulty.

Ankyloglossia does not only affect paediatric patients; it leads to consequences throughout life. These include mouth breathing, difficulty pronouncing certain phonemes, a tendency to choke and poor management of food in the mouth, digestive problems in paediatric patients, and altered growth of the maxilla and mandible, among other frequently observed consequences.

In this course, we aim to establish the foundations of ankyloglossia, learn how to diagnose and treat it (if our specialty allows for such competence). We will study both diagnostic and treatment techniques, including their appropriate timing. Finally, we will address post-surgical rehabilitation to achieve the best possible treatment outcome.

Course description

Enrolled dentists will have the possibility of also enrolling one dental assistant free of cost in the following diploma course:Training Course On Nitrous Oxide in Dentistry for Dental Auxiliaries.

The programme offers an advanced perspective on sedation using nitrous oxide in dentistry and cardiopulmonary resuscitation, but also covers concepts of the clinical pharmacology of medical gases and offers practical sessions on cardiopulmonary resuscitation and the use of defibrillators and equipment for conscious sedation with nitrous oxide. 

Assessment method

An online self-assessment test will be carried out at the end of the course so that students can assess the  achievement  of their personal goals and their knowledge of the content of the course.

Presentation

Implant treatment is able to recover the aesthetics and function of missing teeth as well as the tissue surrounding them.

Knowledge of advanced implantology and periodontal techniques designed to increase the availability of bone and soft tissue offers the clinician the ability to tackle more complex clinical cases and, on the other hand, significantly improve the results across all cases that fall within the usual clinical ambit. For this reason, being able to manage such techniques has become virtually indispensible.

Assessment method

An online self-assessment test will be carried out at the end of the course so that students can assess the  achievement  of their personal goals and their knowledge of the content of the course.

Craniomandibular dysfunction (CMD) and orofacial pain (OP) are very prevalent in the general population. These syndromes encompass a large number of pathologies of the craniomandibular and cervical and scapular area. (Nearly 100% of people will experience OP at some point in their life.) CMD and OP include some of the most important symptoms of craniomandibular/cervical muscular pathologies, as well as temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD), orofacial neuropathies/neuralgias (mainly trigeminal), and primary headaches (migraines, tension-type headaches, trigeminal autonomic headaches). 

Assessment method: An online self-assessment test will be carried out at the end of the course so that students can assess the  achievement  of their personal goals and their knowledge of the content of the course.

Leave your fears behind and learn the fundamentals of designing and printing your digital endodontic cases!

With this course, you will learn in a simple and practical way the step-by-step process of digital endodontic design.

For years now, digitally guided treatments have become part of the field of Endodontics.

Computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) technologies rely on cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) data to produce objects used in both surgical and non-surgical endodontics, as well as in educational settings.

The goal of this course is to review all current applications of 3D printing in endodontics and to learn how to design static guides for both calcified canals and apical surgery.

Forensic Dentistry is the study of resolving legal problems by applying dental knowledge. This science has an ever-increasingly broader scope which covers issues raised in civil, criminal and labour law. Dental knowledge and techniques are used to resolve issues in these fields or else contribute towards their solution. Most cases require knowledge of dental trauma, dental prostheses or dental surgery on which dental knowledge is based.
