Purpose and content of the course

Course Objectives: To know anatomical and morphological principles related to permanent teeth and surrounding tissues, to be familiar with the basic modelling by evaluating the anatomical and morphological features of permanent teeth.
Course Objective: To explain the surface and edges of permanent teeth, morphological terms of teeth and supporting tissues, anatomical and morphological features of each permanent tooth in the oral cavity, and apply modelling.
Mode of Delivery: Face to face

Learning Outcomes

Knowledge (Described as Theoritical and/or Factual Knowledge.)
  1) Students make definitions of morphological terms, and terms regarding surface and edges of teeth.
  2) Students define the tooth (enamel, dentin, cementum) and supporting tissues (gingiva, periodontal ligament, alveolar bone).
  3) Students can list teeth in the oral cavity according to universal enumerating systems.
Skills (Describe as Cognitive and/or Practical Skills.)
  1) Students can classify teeth, deciduous teeth and permanent teeth.
  2) Students draw mesial, distal, vestibular, palatal/lingual , incisal/occlusal surface features of permanent teeth.
  3) Students apply the modeling of permanent teeth from soap material (carving).
Competences (Described as "Ability of the learner to apply knowledge and skills autonomously with responsibility", "Learning to learn"," Communication and social" and "Field specific" competences.)
  1) Students internalize and use morphological knowledge, which is the basis of future professional practices.
