Develop the scientific and professional attitude.To deepen the knowledge of the normal development and human pathological, with special incidence in the face and stmatognatic system. Knowledge in basic concepts of malocclusion, be able to recognize the normal and abnormal development of the face, occlusion and orofacial functions. To know and interpret as in general the orthodontic treatment in its biological and mechanical contexts. Provide knowledge, skills and competences that allow the application of preventive measures in clinical context.
Develop skills in a pre-clinical environment with the materials used and treatments carried out in paediatric dentistry.

Learning outcomes and competences
The syllabus is oriented to the student to hold knowledge, skills and competences that allow him to actively participat in the resolution Pediatric Dentistry clinical cases. To develop a deep understanding of the morphofunctional aspects of the stomatognathic apparatus, in its various stages of development.
It is intended that the student is also able to develop preventive strategies in a clinical context.

Teaching methods and learning activities
Lectures in a frame of critical exposition of theoretical concepts; in order to improve communication they are supported by technologies, which the teacher explores and adjusts . These tools value and promote learning interaction and are mainly digital and alike supported.
Case study learning is particularly valid (PBL), in a preclinical context of simulation of real situations such as need for oral health promotion and treatment of pathology; it favors the integration of scientific knowledge with future clinical practice, cultivates clinical reasoning and allows the development of clinical communication strategies and teamwork.

Minimum of 75% attendance in classes - T, TP and P.
Students who are enrolled in the curricular unit during the academic year and have passed the exam may take the appeal exam.
Mandatory theoretical classes:
- Craniofacial growth I and IV (first and last class)
- Aetiological factors I and IV (first and last lesson)
Questions will be asked at the end of some/all of the lectures (to be decided by the teacher) to prepare for the test (5% of the test grade).

Calculation formula of final grade
Normal Season:
T and T/P assessment - 70%, through partial tests with a minimum positive mark (10 points) in each test.
(5% of the mark will be from questions asked in class).
Practical assessment - 30%, practical test with a minimum pass mark (10 points), with the continuous assessment counting for 50% of the final practical grade (25% pre-clinical work and 25% portfolio).
In order to take part in the appeal period, the student must have 75% attendance and a positive evaluation in all the assessment parameters of the pre-clinical component.
Only students who obtain an attendance can take the final exam.
Pre-clinical assessments will be carried out using the OSCE Methodology.
OSCE assessment criteria (CRITERIA ADAPTED FOR PRE-CLINICAL PROCEDURES)
O- OBJECTIVE
S- STRUCTURED
C- CLINICAL
E- EXAMINATION
These criteria will be provided to the students in the Powerpoint of the presentation class and posted on Moodle.

Students whose status exempts them from the attendance requirement are not exempt from attending the T/P, P and theory classes described above, nor are they exempt from submitting to the assessment components provided for other students, so they must fulfil the attendance criteria.
See ‘Attendance criteria and final grade calculation formula’.Classification improvement
Written test in resource period.
This course is a continuous assessment course:
- improvement can be made to 30% of the grade and in the corresponding tests of the seminar topics;
