Assessment
Unaided Work:
Control of theoretical knowledge with tests and a colloquium at the end of the semester, which consists of 2 parts - the practical part of planning and the theoretical part of questions/answers. Students should prepare a presentation in pairs, practically perform implant planning tasks, insert an implant into an artificial jaw with the help of a surgical guide. In order to evaluate the quality of the study course as a whole, the student must fill out the study course evaluation questionnaire on the Student Portal.
Assessment Criteria:
Active participation in practical lessons, ability to perform specific work tasks. Attending 8 seminars, completing homework, presenting/discussing presentations. Passed tests and final colloquium.

Learning Outcomes
Knowledge:Students will be able to understand the basics of digital dental implantology. Students will learn to plan the positions of dental implants before prosthetics with the help of special software.
Skills:Students will be able to plan dental implants digitally, as well as learn the basic principles of guided implantation. Students will be able to insert an implant into an artificial jaw with the help of a surgical guide.
Competencies:This knowledge will allow students to gain a more complete view of patient anatomy, implant position, and the importance of prosthetic knowledge for more predictive treatment planning.
