Objectives

It is widely accepted that the oral health of infants, children and adolescents affects the overall health of the child population and in the future, in the adult population. Therefore, it is important that there are dentists prepared to prevent and solve the most common oral problems of the pediatric population.

The objective of this course is that students obtain advanced knowledge required for proper diagnosis and counseling of child terapética patient.

Presentations of theoretical subjects by the Master’s staff and guest lecturers.

Evaluation systems and criteria

In person



  •  

  •  

  • Two theoretical examinations will be held during the academic year:
    • Theoretical exam first semester: 50% of the final grade of the subject
    • Theoretical exam second semester: 50% of the final grade of the subject

     


    To pass the subject, a minimum grade of 5 is necessary in the two theoretical exams of the subject to be able to perform the average.

     

     The theoretical exam will be made up of test-type questions with 5 possible answers, and a single correct one, short answer questions and true/false questions. Badly answered questions will subtract 0.20 points. The theoretical exam is passed based on a minimum grade of 5 out of 10.

    Attendance at theoretical classes is mandatory. Only those that are due to serious illness, accident and/or death of a first and second degree of consanguineity will be considered as justified faults. In case of justified lack, the proof of the same must be delivered to the responsible teacher no later than one week after it (via email).

    The unwarranted lack of 2 or more theoretical sessions will lead to the suspense of the subject.
