Introduction


In this subject students will study through a critical analysis of both classical and current literature the following topics: Working length, consequences of apical widening, calcium hydroxide, reconstruction of endodontized tooth and in vivo studies in disinfection of root canals.


Pre-course requirements

There are no previous requirements
 

Objectives


Of the lengths of work, consequences of the apical widening in the cleaning, calcium hydroxide, disinfection in in vivo studies and reconstruction of the endodontised tooth will be able to: 

- Learn to make a critique of the articles. 

- Be able to discuss contributing quotes from current and classic literature on a topic. 

- Be able to list the controlled and uncontrolled variables of the study 

- To know if the statistical method adjusts to what the author wants to evaluate 

- Be able to list deficiencies in the methodology 

- Be able to provide possible improvements in the methodology used 

- Discuss in a coherent way the different methodological options to evaluate the subject in question 

- Evaluate if the objectives are adapted to the scope of the work carried out and if they are met 

- Criticize the introduction and discussion made by the authors of the article 

- Providing future studies to continue with the authors' research 

- Evaluate the clinical contribution of the articles analyzed

Learning outcomes of the subject

The student will know the different methods to calculate the length of work as well as its limitations The students will know the anatomical characteristics of the apical part The student will know the different techniques to reconstruct an endodontised tooth as well as the advantages and disadvantages of each technique The student will know the different materials and their characteristics to reconstruct the endodontiated tooth The student will learn the different apical diameters expected depending on the tooth The student will learn what is the implication of increasing the apical diameter in the cleaning of the canal The student will know the implications of increasing the apical caliber in the deformation of the canal The student will know the characteristics of calcium hydroxide The student will know the disinfection capacity of calcium hydroxide The student will learn the different articles where the results in healing and postoperative pain of one visit versus two visits have been compared. The student will know the different in vivo studies that have been published on the effectiveness of different irrigants and intra-conductive medications.
