Introduction to Biomedical and General Anatomy

Catalog description

This block builds a clinically oriented understanding of gross anatomy with emphasis on head-and-neck structures critical to dentistry. Students integrate osteology, myology, neuroanatomy, vasculature, spaces, and fascial planes to support safe administration of local anesthesia, accurate interpretation of radiographs, and recognition of pathologic processes. Learners practice anatomical identification in pro-sections, models, radiographic images, and virtual 3D tools; communicate professionally in lab; and connect anatomic variation to clinical decision-making.
