Oral Surgery and Endodontics (RED_038)
About Study Course
Objective
The course provides advanced knowledge of the interdisciplinary aspects of oral surgery and endodontics, developing the resident's ability to evaluate tooth preservation strategies, plan treatment in collaboration with oral and maxillofacial surgeons, and make evidence-based clinical decisions in complex clinical situations. Residents acquire advanced knowledge of treatment planning for tooth autotransplantation, the surgical management of odontogenic and non-odontogenic lesions, and decision-making between endodontic treatment and implant therapy.
Learning outcomes
1.1. Acquire advanced knowledge of the principles guiding treatment selection between endodontic therapy, tooth extraction and implant replacement by evaluating clinical, radiographic and prognostic factors.
2. Acquire knowledge of the indications, contraindications, treatment principles and long-term outcomes of tooth autotransplantation and the surgical management of odontogenic and non-odontogenic lesions.
1.1. Assess tooth preservation potential and develop an evidence-based treatment plan by selecting endodontic treatment, tooth extraction or implant replacement according to the clinical situation.
2. Evaluate the indications for tooth autotransplantation and the surgical management of odontogenic and non-odontogenic lesions, and plan interdisciplinary treatment in collaboration with oral and maxillofacial surgeons.
1.1. Integrate theoretical knowledge and clinical skills to independently make evidence-based decisions regarding tooth preservation or replacement by evaluating prognosis, treatment risks and patient-related factors.
2. Independently plan interdisciplinary treatment for patients requiring collaboration between endodontists and oral and maxillofacial surgeons to optimise treatment outcomes and long-term prognosis.
3. The resident is able to diagnose odontogenic and non-odontogenic jaw lesions, perform differential diagnosis, assess the indications for surgical management, and collaborate with oral and maxillofacial surgeons in treatment planning and long-term patient follow-up.
