This Unit addresses advanced and complex non-surgical periodontal therapy: diagnosis, treatment planning and treatment. The use of different types of antimicrobial therapy, management of multi-rooted teeth and endodontic-periodontal considerations, as well as different techniques in periodontal surgery and modern supportive periodontal therapy will be covered. Wound healing, basic surgical principles, pre-operative evaluation as well as soft and hard tissue management and post-operative care are included. The course also covers the role of host risk factors in patients susceptible to periodontal diseases and in treatment selection and outcomes. Regular journal clubs, seminars and workshops are held to critically evaluate the current literature and gain the theoretical background required. Didactic instruction in this course complements clinical activities. Students may be required to attend classes at multiple locations.
