Learning outcomes and competences
Be competent in:
- concepts and terminologies of the CU;
- medical history and treatment planning for oral rehabilitation, with various options and costs;
-supervised clinical practice in patients of basic Fixed Prosthodontic procedures (inlays, crowns and ceramic or metal-ceramic short-span bridges), Removable Prosthodontics (partial and full dentures, acrylic and skeletal), and Occlusion (therapies for temporomandibular disorders and fabrication and adjustment of stabilization appliances in semi-adjustable articulator);
-psycomotor skills and aesthetic sensibility;
Acquire knowledge on:
-laboratory procedures for Fixed and Removable Prosthodontics and Occlusion and Orofacial Pain (occlusal appliances);
-new technologies related to the CU.
Working method
Presencial
Program
Practical classes with patients at the clinic of FMDUP, including:
- medical history and clinical examination of the patient;
- study of clinical cases and treatment planning, uni or multi-disciplinary, with alternative strategies and the corresponding budgets, that will be approved by the professor and presented to the patient, in a written document. Discussion of all procedures with the supervising professor;
- clinical management of patients (2 or 3 students per box), under supervision, for rehabilitation with Fixed Prosthesis (inlays, crowns and short-span bridges) or Removable Prosthesis (partial and full dentures, acrylic and skeletal); of Occlusion and Orofacial Pain (therapy for temporomandibular disorders: intra-oral appliances; occlusal balance; fabrication and adjustment of occlusal stabilization appliances);
- live demonstration on patients, conducted by the professor, of less common clinical situations.

Teaching methods and learning activities
Teaching methodologies: Clinical practice supervised by a graduate teacher.
This CU emcompasses diverse teaching methods, in accordance with the syllabus and the defined objectives.
Thus, clinical classes are held, in which students have the opportunity to demonstrate the previously acquired knowledge on Fixed Prosthodontic, Removable Prosthodontics and Occlusion in the management of simple cases of oral rehabilitation.
The medical history and treatment planning, with the corresponding alternatives, are previously conducted and assessed. The agreed treatment option is thorougly discussed, always considering a sequential, inter- and multidisciplinary perspective.
In less common clinical situations, live practical demonstrations are performed by the professor.
It should be emphasized that supervised clinical training is the internationally recommended methodology to develop students' competence in the treatment of simple cases of oral rehabilitation with removable prosthesis, fixed prosthesis, occlusion and orofacial pain.

Calculation formula of final grade
Evaluation formula:
Evaluation of clinical practice, taking into account the attendance and punctuality, familiarity with the procedure, the quality and quantity of teaching support needed, the level of clinical procedure, the correct evaluation of the clinical outcome and the use of the clinical protocol defined. - 80%
Evaluation of reports of patients - 20%
It is also possible to prepare a scientific paper in 1-3 groups of students - not mandatory - 20% of the final grade
All grades above 16 must be ‘defended’ in an oral exam.
