REDE-308 : Restorative Dentistry

Restorative Dentistry Lecture provides a transition for the dental student entering the clinic. This course is designed to reinforce, integrate, and build upon knowledge acquired in the previous two years of the Restorative Dentistry curriculum. A clinical perspective is presented, illustrating the integration of the dental disciplines employed in rendering live patient care. The student will gain an appreciation for oral health problems and how they can be managed, restoratively. Lectures will provide examples of commonly treated dental conditions, dental materials used in treating these conditions, and will assist the student in selecting potential courses of intervention. The student will review and critique case-based literature, in an effort to evaluate current trends and justifications for treatment options.
