General Dentistry Course

Master clinical dentistry institute provides opportunities for advanced training with a special emphasis in clinical general dentistry. The purpose of the course is to prepare the doctor to enter private practice. The participant treats the patients in a very comprehensive way while interacting with specialists. Therefore, the student is the main coordinator of the patient’s full dental treatment. They coordinate referrals, consultations and treatment planning. Through expert guidance, the program increases participant management abilities, clinical judgment, and patient care skills. The faculty comprises a group of Prosthodontists, Periodontists, Endodontists, Pedodontics, Oral Maxillofacial Surgeon, and General Dentists. Throughout the program, the participant will perform a good number of restorative procedures such as endodontic treatments, oral surgeries, partial dentures, complete dentures, crown, and bridge. The program enhances these clinical and diagnostic skills by being exposed to the large patient pool available in the program. The course is divided into eight modules.
