Training for master student in endodontics is necessary knowledge of dental anatomy, head and neck; this knowledge will enable better cognitive development. From thorough knowledge of dental anatomy it is to give the necessary tools for the proper development of endodontic therapy in all phases
No precourse requirements
Understand the morphology and function of the oral cavity including appropriate Embryology, Anatomy and Physiology specific content.
Knowing the morphology and function of the structures that make up human teeth and different variations and pathologies both coronal and radicular.
Recognize diagnostic tests for the image of the head and neck anatomical structures and identify possible morphological and functional alterations
Gain the necessary knowledge and skills to perform the access cavity on each tooth.
Acquiring the ability to identify different variation of the Access cavity in complex cases.
Knowing how to share information with other healthcare professionals and how to work as part of a team.
Understanding the importance of keeping and using patient files in order to subsequently analyse them.
Understanding and recognising the structure and normal function of the stomatognathic apparatus, at a molecular, cellular, tissue and organic level, during the various stages of life.
Being aware of scientific methods and having the critical ability to evaluate established knowledge and innovative information. Being able to formulate hypotheses, collect and critically evaluate information in order to resolve problems, in accordance with scientific methods.
The student must know the dental morphology of each tooth, both in aspect coronal and root. In addition to developing the necessary skills to the correct access openings of the pulp chamber and root canals.
Know in detail the specific morphology of the permanent dentition.
It will be able to recognize different dental classes and all its distinctive features in the crown and root
It will be able to make films with a microscope.
It will be able to edit the videos both images and sound.
Make quality intraoral photographs.
It will solve clinical problems made from deductions to the basic knowledge of anatomy and function of the teeth.
Identified by imaging techniques, structures of different topographical regions of the oral cavity and teeth in particular.
It will understand and recognize the structure and normal function of the oral cavity at the molecular and cellular level.
It will be valued as necessary learning anatomy as an essential mechanism for achieving success in the diagnosis and treatment of dental diseases.
