- The objectives of this teaching block are:
-to provide theoretical basic knowledge concerning anatomy and the physiopathology of the complex pulpo dentinal
-the etiopathogenesis of diseases of the pulp and inflammatory lesions peri-radicular of endodontic origin
-elements useful for the differential diagnosis of the lesions endo-periodontal and cause of pain not odontogeno district gold-face
-the theoretical bases of classification clinical patient suffering from pulp pathology by proper medical history, clinical examination and its diagnosis and treatment plan
-the characteristics of the materials and of the instrumentation used in endodontics
-techniques for the opening of the pulp chamber, access to endodonto, instrumentation, disinfection and blocking of the root canals, in respect of the periodontal tissues and of the adjacent structures.
The student after lessons will have to demonstrate knowledge and ability to understanding considering specific topics and comprehension skills regarding:
-the criteria classificativi and nomenclature of the lesions pulpari and peri-radicular
-the etiopathogenesis of pulp pathology and peri-canal, the formulation of a correct diagnosis, prognostic evaluations in endodontics
- basic principles of instrumentation, disinfection and blocking of the system of root canals Prerequisites
- Students should have adequate knowledge on oral anatomy and histology, oral microbiology and immunology, oral pathology
