Learning objectives
The course aims to deepen the knowledge and understanding of the pathophysiology of the stomatognathic system in order to develop in students a critical skill on the topics covered, and therefore use the knowledge and understanding of diagnostic methods and instrumental, making the student assimilate the nature and 'use of the materials and technologies used in dentistry through a systematic exposition of laboratory procedures, chemical structure and physical characteristics of the materials and also the operating instructions and their manipulation with a particular interest in the development of innovative technologies.

Teaching methods
Lectures supplemented by discussion of topics in order to train students in critical skills on the topics and allow you to gain an understanding of issues related to technology and prosthetic dental laboratory, so to be able to solve the problems of the relationship dentist-dental.
Assessment methods and criteria
Oral exam, with more teachers in order to ensure the quality and level of knowledge and understanding of the course content and the ability to apply the acquired knowledge to professional practice. The trial will also evaluate the quality of student participation in class.
