| Preliminary Knowledge: | Dental anatomy and occlusion, dental materials, preclinical course in cariology and prosthodontics, periodontology, endodontology, computer knowledge. | ||||||||
| Objective: | Introduce students with the basics of microprosthodontics, give the understanding about transition between operative dentistry to prosthodontics, improve knowledge in dental materials, introduce with advantages of digital dentistry, CEREC produced indirect tooth restorations (ITR), explain digital workflow in dentistry, make an (ITR) in preclinic and learn to cement them. | ||||||||

| Assessment | |||||||||
| Unaided Work: | 1. Analysis of one article about ITR or digital dentistry (20%) - independent work. 2. Test in e-studies (25%) 3. Semester paper. Description of the one clinical case: diagnosis, planning of the ITR, material choice, cementation procedure (30%) - independent work. 4. Producing of one ITR in preclinic (25%). The student are asked to fill the course evaluation questionnaire. | ||||||||
| Assessment Criteria: | Participation in seminars and production of ITR, successfully passed final test, submitted semester paper with clinical case and article analysis. The exam or final assessment is accumulative - the total grade will be calculated from the two papers to be submitted: the test and the permanent paper. | ||||||||

| Learning Outcomes | |||||||||
| Knowledge: | On successful completion of the course students will know the basics of the microprosthodontics: evaluation of teeth, teeth preparation and preservation for ITR, correct usage of materials and instruments, analogue and digital impressions, CEREC system in microprosthodontics, cementation of ITR. | ||||||||
| Skills: | Practical ability to restore teeth with inlays, onlays, veneers, partial crowns made from different materials via digital workflow. | ||||||||
| Competencies: | Ability to use theoretical and practical knowledge in microprosthodontics in everyday dental practice, offering the patients more therapy modalities using appropriate materials and techniques. | ||||||||
