Objectives
Acquisition of knowledge and competencies by students in basic scientific and technical procedures of Conservative Dentistry that can lead to understanding of the disease etiology, as well as the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of Dental,to the understanding of the endodontology concept, the pulpal pathology, the clinical situations that lead to endodontic treatment and the techniques for doing that. Acquisition of scientific knowledge and competencies on the handling and use of biomaterials related to these two areas of dental medicine. Students should be able to technically perform, in pre-clinical environment, the tooth cavity preparation as well as the instrumentation of root canal of monorradicular teeth learning, through specific exercises, to properly have knowledge of each of the materials and instruments needed for that purpose.
Learning outcomes and competences
The programmatic contents enable acqisition of knowledge and competences on basic concepts of dental caries regarding etiology, diagnosis, prevention and treatment, as well as the concepts of Endodontics, the pulp pathology that may originate the need for root endodontic treatment (TER) and the application of inherent techniques. They also provide the study, understanding and pre-clinical practical training, the preparation of cavities in the tooth that will be restored, as well as in the realization of TER and the manipulation of instruments and restorative materials used in these procedures.
