Learning objectives
At the end of the course, the Student must have acquired the anatomical, etiopathogenetic, instrumental and operational knowledge to carry out diagnosis, implement prevention protocols, set and carry out conservative therapy plans, both in "normal" and "at risk" patients of the hard tissues of the tooth that aim at the morphological, functional and aesthetic restoration and in respect of the health of the periodontal tissues and the function of the stomatognathic apparatus. In the same way he will have to know, diagnose and prevent diseases of the dental pulp.

Teaching methods
Class lessons: the program themes will be discussed with the aid of slides. The proposed topics will be the subject of collective discussion and study on the basis of ideas and any questions raised during the lessons themselves.
Assessment methods and criteria
The achievement of the goals of the course is verified by an oral exam.
Answering questions about the contents of the course, the student will demonstrate whether he/she has achieved the goals of knowledge and understanding of the contents
