Introduction
Pulp Regeneration in Endodontics is an emerging area within contemporary endodontics that combines knowledge of pulp biology, tissue engineering, and advanced endodontic practice. The course aims to provide students with a comprehensive overview of the biological bases, techniques, and clinical applications of pulp regeneration procedures and vital pulp therapy, as well as to train them in the critical evaluation of existing scientific evidence.
Pre-course requirements
None
