The aim of the integrated course is the acquisition of the theoretical and practical knowledge underlying the diagnosis, the possible approaches aimed at the prevention or therapy of pathologies of the individual dental elements of the supporting tissues and of the structures in general relating to the stomatognathic apparatus with the aim to preserve or rehabilitate its functionality in different age groups. For this purpose, students will have to clearly acquire the concepts of normality and pathology, the principles of physiological biomechanics, the different possible diagnostic paths, the application of the concepts of statistical evaluation of anamnestic and clinical data and the psychological aspects of developmental age and later ages necessary for the correct performance of the dental profession. The planned practical internships will provide the opportunity to achieve the technical ability to implement the knowledge acquired in the most effective way.
