The last step is the personal interview with the directors/coordinators of the Program in which the following will be assessed: academic record, personal profile, motivations and aptitudes. The interviews will be held face-to-face on dates that will be confirmed once the previous steps of the process have been completed.

New communication technologies have made it possible to communicate at a distance with an ease that was unthinkable until very recently. Use of these resources means that a large part of the training involved in postgraduate education can be carried out at a distance, without the need for being present in person.

This course allows access to the highest level of postgraduate training for students who are not able to attend university for two years in person, but who are able to invest the time and dedication necessary to achieve the objectives of the programme.

The nature of dentistry does however require a minimum level of attendance at UIC Barcelona, which is organised personally for each student in order to cause the minimum level of disruption to their family and/or working life.

Studying on this programme requires a minimum of six  hours per week, in addition to working time over the weekend. Students will communicate via a videoconference call over the Collaborate platform, and sessions with the teaching staff will be held twice a week in the form of a seminar.  

• Graduate degree in Dentistry.
• B1 level or similar in Spanish, which will be assessed in the personal interview.
   

To start the admission process you must complete the Program Admission Form found on the University website and follow the steps to attach the following required documentation:

• Bachelor's Degree or Bachelor's Degree*.

Many patients who require dental treatment are older people with systemic illnesses, which calls for accurate knowledge of the implications and interactions of these pathologies with dental health and care. These could include cardiovascular, immunological, endocrine or metabolic pathologies that must be known by the dentist in order to correctly carry out treatment in a way that is safe for both them and the patient. Furthermore, people with disabilities present complex and difficult challenges for the profession. In addition, the use of certain medications and drug interactions can lead to oral lesions, or appear as oral manifestations of underlying systemic diseases. We consider all these patients as special patients.

At present, academic learning in terms of bachelor's degree studies are limited to purely theoretical concepts and limited clinical practice with low-risk older patients. Patients that are significantly medically compromised, patients with mental disabilities and non-cooperative patients generate a pathology that bachelor’s degree students, given their lack of experience, are not able to handle easily. The techniques, materials and procedures for these patients are substantially different. They are not covered in conventional programmes and open up possibilities for further research. The recommendations by the Council of European Dentists, published in its directive of 19 November 2010, recommend the inclusion of Gerodontology in university curricula and agree with the European College of Gerodontology on the need to promote postgraduate education and lines of research in the field.

Are there master's degrees available internationally? There is no specific master's degree on Gerodontology in Spain and there is only one master's degree in Hospital Dentistry and Special Patients in Valencia and another in Seville, a master's degree at the University of Santiago on patients with systemic pathologies and an expert's degree in hospital dentistry and special patients in Oviedo.

Therefore, the shortage of trained professionals in this field and the demand coming from specialised centres and hospitals can only be addressed by master's degrees with these characteristics.

To start the admission process you must complete the Program Admission Form found on the University website and follow the steps to attach the required documentation.

All candidates who meet the criteria and general requisites for access to the study programme will be able to apply for entry. However, the recommended entry profile is:

• 30 ECTS, Postgraduate Degree in Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology

In the various fields of action of the Specialist in Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology, competences include: 

In relation to the previous considerations about image exams  

To be undertaken by professionals whose standard criteria is to protect their patients according to the international regulation for the reduction of the radiation doses to a reasonable minimum in order to obtain diagnostic benefits (ALARA criteria). 

In order for your professional work in Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology to always consider the cost-benefit relationship between the characteristics and quantity of the exams that are necessary and most suitable for each particular case then thisneeds to be considered. The reason for this is so that your activities can be undertaken in the way that causes the least damage when using ionising radiation and also with a view to the most suitable level of resolution of clinical concerns for which each patient will have been informed about the respective image examinations that will be used. 

Given the continuous progress on the scientific and technological progress in Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology places a critical attitude and permanently updates information which allows them to suitably adopt the concepts which constitute a benefit to this discipline in dentistry in order to put them into practice, the reason why continuing academic education is its natural characteristic. 

The image examinations themselves  

Students must acquires the skills to correctly indicate conventional and highly complex imagine examinations according to the characteristics of each clinical profile, with one of them being a permanent advisor for general dentistry, specialist dentistry and, sometimes, also a medical surgeon, in order to suitably complement the information coming from clinical discoveries in the oral and maxillofacial fields.  

In this way Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology contributes to the various stages involving the diagnosis, control and the treatment of local pathologies, while generating information which complements clinical discoveries and allows students to estimate the prognosis for existing pathologies. 

Students must be trained to undertake conventional radiographic exams, as well as ensure that they are critically and correctly advised when undertaking the most complex exams, with the aim of always using the available technology efficiently on the private and public network of image provider services. 

This professional has the most authority to interpret the images obtained from these exams both in terms of pathologies related to the motive that led to the exam request, and in terms of the discoveries made thereby, always based on the aim of returning to or preserving good oral health. The healthcare team will provide this as a comprehensive service to their patients. 

In terms of their tasks in the healthcare team  

In order to do this these professionals must be able to work in a team, whenever Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology activities are in essence an activity involving advice and are complementary to clinical activity, whatever the dental specialisation and eventually the medical specialisation is, that requires their services. 

Likewise, the image discoveries can be correlated with the clinical and epidemiological realities of each individual in particular and of the entire population in general and, since he or she also knows the national systems of healthcare planning in the area of dentistry, can be undertaken both in the public and the private sector. 

Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology has the ability to guide or contribute to the scientific research that is carried out in relation to the particular work of the specialisation or for which the specialisation provides support.  It likewise has the potential to make the activities known and to equip suitably accredited assistants to undertake tasks to support the field of this specialisation. 

At the same time, Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology has the required competences to provide their opinions on legal or expert issues with back-up when the pertinent authorities consider it to be necessary. 

In terms of responsibility  

Further to all of the above, the specialist is responsible for the procedures and results of the work towards the specialisation they are responsible for administrating. At the same time they will be responsible for raising awareness among the corresponding administrative authorities about any eventual irregularities which they will become involved in during their work or which will be present in the clinical guidelines which regulate their activity in the public and private healthcare networks which offer image diagnosis services.
