Course Description
This course is designed to provide the students with the necessary basic knowledge of different dental materials in order to attain the expected level of clinical competency. It is a one semester pre-clinical course during the third year. It consists of didactic and practical components. The didactic component covers the theoretical aspects of Dental Biomaterial Sciences, while the practical component covers the manipulative aspects of Dental Biomaterial Sciences.
Main Objectives
To expose the students to:
- A comprehensive study of various groups of dental materials in terms of composition, supplied form, mechanism of setting, microstructure, properties, manipulative techniques and implications.
- Behavioural aspects of different dental materials based on composition-structure-properties relationship.
- Self-learning, directed search for information as well as team work.
