Study course description | |||||||||
Preliminary Knowledge: | Dental anatomy and occlusion, dental materials, preclinical course in cariology and prosthodontics, periodontology, endodontology, computer knowledge. | ||||||||
Objective: | Introduce students with the basics of microprosthodontics, give the understanding about transition between operative dentistry to prosthodontics, improve knowledge in dental materials, introduce with advantages of digital dentistry, CAD/CAM produced indirect tooth restorations (ITR), explain digital workflow in dentistry, make an (ITR) in preclinic and learn to cement them. | ||||||||

Learning Outcomes | |||||||||
Knowledge: | On successful completion of the course students will know the basics of the microprosthodontics: evaluation of teeth, teeth preparation and preservation for ITR, correct usage of materials and instruments, analogue and digital impressions, CAD/CAM systems in microprosthodontics, cementation of ITR. | ||||||||
Skills: | Practical ability to restore teeth with inlays, onlays, veneers, partial crowns made from different materials, using analogue and digital workflow. | ||||||||
Competencies: | Ability to use theoretical and practical knowledge in microprosthodontics in everyday dental practice, offering the patients more therapy modalities using appropriate materials and techniques. | ||||||||
