Objectives
The objectives of this course are designed to provide students with skills to enable them to oral rehabilitation with Fixed and Removable Prosthodontics.
Learning outcomes and competences
- Dental materials;
- Clinical imaging;
- Fixed Prosthodontics (large span bridges and vertical dimension changes);
- Removable Prosthodontics (complex implant overdentures and fixed-removable prosthesis);
- Tooth wear;
- Veneers and adhesion;
- Aesthetic dentistry.
Working method
Presencial
Program
Theoretical and theoretical-practical classes, which include the following topics:
Dental materials
Understanding of biomaterial science relevant to prosthodontics.
Clinical imaging
Analysis of CT scans and other appropriate radiographic images in relation with high complex clinical cases.
Fixed Prosthodontics
Large span bridges, full fixed implant prosthesis and vertical dimension changes.
Removable Prosthodontics
Complex implant overdentures and fixed-removable prosthesis.
Tooth wear
Take an appropriate history to discover the aetiological factors involved in tooth wear; Understand and use the appropriate techniques, materials and technologies available to manage tooth wear; Understand the laboratory requirements for restorations and show effective communication with laboratory technicians; Monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of treatment in tooth wear.
Veneers and adhesion
Veneers: incisal edge preparation and interdental spaces. Veneers of different materials and bonding techniques.
Aesthetic dentistry
Plan and provide all types of dental procedures for managing changes in tooth colour and morphology; Understand and use the appropriate techniques, materials and technologies available for altering tooth colour and proportion; Ceramics and ceramic systems; Understand the laboratory requirements for restorations and show effective communication with laboratory technicians; Monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of treatment.

Teaching methods and learning activities
The teaching are spread over theoretical and theoretical-practical classes, using audiovisual means and practical demonstrations (implant systems, ceramic veneers, indirect restorations, emergence profile, attachments in removable dentures).
Some classes are taught by guest professors from other universities and industry.
Evaluation Type
Distributed evaluation without final exam

Eligibility for exams
Attendance of at least 75% of the lessons.
Calculation formula of final grade
The final grade is calculated taking into account the following parameters:
Written test - 70%
The absence from the testing, or grade below 9.5 points implies the failure in the continuous assessment. The student can make final exam (normal time and / or resource season).
Scientific paper (Review or research paper) – 30%
Theme, content and work scheme previously approved by the Regent.
Final score equal or higher than 17 points has to be defended in oral exam. If the student does not attend the oral exam will get the final score of 16 points. The oral test never leads to rating less than 16 points.
Classification improvement
Theoretical test and scientific work publishable.
