Learning Outcomes of the Curricular Unit:
1. Provide students with the basic knowledge of growth and development of the stomatognathic apparatus and the ability to interpret what is normal and abnormal at each moment in order to act with appropriate preventive, interceptive and corrective attitudes. 2. Provide students with the ability to clinically diagnose major occlusal syndromes, as well as knowledge of their etiology, symptomatology and generic therapeutic principles. 3. Information and use of subsidiary exams in orthodontic diagnosis (radiography and models), as well as the establishment of a correct plan of treatment, selection of therapeutic means and prognosis. 6 ECTS (Orthodontics: 3 ECTS + Pediatric Dentistry: 3 ECTS) The final average of the Course is made by weighting 50% of each of the components of Orthodontics and Pediatric Dentistry.
Syllabus:
Theoretical Program: Etiologic Factors of Malocclusion: Classification of etiological factors. Evolution of the various nomenclatures in relation to the predominance of genetics or environmental factors. Salzman's Classification A-General Factors: Inheritance, Congenital defects, Environmental factors, Abnormal pressure habits B- Local Factors: Number anomalies, Size anomalies, Anomalies Abnormal eruption, Abnormal eruptive pathway, Ankylosis, Caries lesions, Inappropriate reconstructions Practical Program: Integrated orthodontic diagnosis 1- Clinical Activity: Reception of patients. History and clinical exams. Execution of mouth impressions, occlusion recording and photographs. Placement of the apparatus and its controls. 2 - Laboratory: Passage to plaster and cutting of models. 3- R.X. Room: Radiographic evaluation. Cephalometric tracings. 4- Seminars: Discussion of cases and treatment options.
Demonstration of the Syllabus Coherence with the Curricular Unit's Objectives:
Matrices sequentially ordered and continuously updated, gradually and in a logical sequence, introduce students to increasingly elaborate concepts, from diagnosis to therapeutic action.
Teaching Methodologies (Including Evaluation):
Theoretical Evaluation (3 ECTS): The theoretical evaluation can be of continuous nature or final exam of the semester. Has a weighting of 3 ECTS (%) in the final classification of UC. Those who do not have at least 50% of attendance, or lack the theoretical test, go directly to the final exam of the semester.
Demonstration of the Coherence between the Teaching Methodologies and the Learning Outcomes:
Practical Assessment - 2 ECTS: a) The evaluation of practical knowledge will be carried out based on a minimum of 3 assessments per student. (b) These assessments may consist of carrying out work previously carried out, whether or not accompanied by a questionnaire relating to the work under evaluation, a questionnaire, theoretical or practical, or an individual technique assessment. (c) Practical evaluations may be carried out in addition to those envisaged and are not necessarily preceded by prior notice. d) The practical approval is valid for 2 years, in case of failure in the theoretical evaluation, reason why the students are exempted from the frequency of practical classes for this period, unless this is their desire for note improvement effect, or simply training.
