General Dentistry Simulation I - Restorative Dentistry

Catalog description

This is a continuation of the D1 course ( PCL03-DN 1608 ) dealing with the whole patient and the surgical and non-surgical treatment of the dental hard tissues. It builds on the foundation knowledge and experience from D1, exposing students to more complex cases. Both the classical and contemporary preparations of restorative dentistry are presented. Students will prepare for the patient care program by reviewing updates in cariology, caries diagnosis, caries risk assessment, and homecare procedures being reinforced in a simulated patient setting. All laboratory procedures will be “cased based” using a patient scenario. This training will take place in a simulation environment that develops good “clinical” habits and integrates “patient” data into the daily treatment. The course will also introduce the D2 student to the clinic Electronic Health Record (EHR) using these same patient scenarios. This course is open only to students in the Doctor of Dental Surgery program. Core curriculum.
