2 UE GRADUATE SCHOOL COURSE DESCRIPTION GDE 711 PULP MORPHOLOGY AND BIOLOGY An in-depth study of the dental pulp in health and in disease. Pulpal reactions to irritants are emphasized along with the associated diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. ( units) GDE 713 ANATOMY OF THE DENTAL CANAL SYSTEM Involves the study of the normal morphology of the pulp chamber and root canal of different teeth and their variations. ( units) GDM 713 DENTO-CRANIOFACIAL RADIOLOGY Discusses advanced imaging systems and radiographic procedures used in orthodontics such as the lateral, anteroposterior cephalograms, landmark identification measurements and analyses. ( units) GDM 73 ORAL IMMUNOLOGY AND MICROBIOLOGY Current concepts of clinical microbiology, immunology, virology, and antimicrobial chemotherapy are considered in their applications to oral maxillofacial infections. ( units) GDN 71 HISTOPHYSIOLOGY OF THE PULP AND PERIRADICULAR TISSUES Provides an overview of the pulp tissue, periodontium and oral mucosa in health with emphasis on histology, ultrastructure, functions, and clinical considerations ( units) GDN 714 CLINICAL PRACTICE AND CONFERENCE (INTERNSHIP) Students are expected to perform access cavity preparation, biomechanical preparation ad obturation on extracted teeth. Diagnostic procedures as well as diagnosis of different pulpal and periapical diseases by assisting the senior students to arrive at the diagnosis. (1 unit) GDE 716 RESEARCH DESIGNS AND METHODS Involves formulation of research idea, review of appropriate literature, formulation of research hypothesis and the methods and materials to be used in implementation of the proposal. ( units) GDE 718 PHYSIOLOGICAL CHEMISTRY The role of different chemical substances secreted by the cells and tissues of the body in the metabolic processes will be discussed. ( units) GDM BIOSTASTICSTIC Emphasizes probability and sampling theories, criteria of validity and reliability, and fundamentals of descriptive and inferential statistics; scales of measurements and applications of parametric and nonparametric tests. ( Units) GDM 73 INTERDISCIPLINARY DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT PLANNING Interdepartmental preparation, presentation, and evaluation of interrelated advanced dental specialty cases. Emphasis will be placed on multidisciplinary management, including diagnosis and treatment. ( units) GDM 734 ADVANCED INFECTION CONTROL Infection control deals with safety precautionary measures, policies, and management to prevent the risk of transmission of infection in health care settings as hospitals, clinics and community health services. (1 unit) GDN 715 CLINICAL ENDODONTICS I Deals with the clinical delivery of comprehensive endodontic therapy to patients with various types of pulpal/ periapical conditions. (3 units) GDM 735 TRENDS IN MEDICAL AND DENTAL EMERGENCIES Medical and dental emergencies deal with early recognition and preparation of patients with risk of impending medical emergencies such as cardiovascular and neurological disorders which may arise in dental practice, prevention and skills consistent with the basic knowledge of the cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and management of airway, breathing and circulation

3 (ABC). (1 unit) GDE 71 CELLULAR AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY Ultramicroscopic cellular components and their biological functions are discussed at molecular level. ( units) GDE 7 HISTOPHATHOLOGY OF THE PULP AND PERIRADICULAR TISSUES Provides an overview of the pulp, perodontium and oral mucosa in disease with emphasis on histology, ultrastructure, impaired functions and clinicopathologic considerations. ( units) GDN 73 ENDODONTOLOGY 1 Discusses specific areas of clinical pharmacology, internal medicine, and infectious diseases that may have a direct relationship to clinical treatment of the endodontic patient. (1 unit) GDN 74 DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS OF OROFACIAL PAIN This course provides the foundation knowledge necessary to differentiate orofacial pain of nonodontogenic from those of odontogenic origin. ( units) GDN 75 CLINICAL ENDODONTICS A continuation of GDN 715. (3 units) GCE 795 COMPREHENSIVE EXAMINATION A written examination to assess the students knowledge of their academic and clinical courses in their chosen fields in dentistry: prosthodontics, or endodontics. orthodontics, periodontics, hypothesis and the methods and materials used in implementation of the proposal relevant to their chosen specialty. At the end of the course the students would be able to discuss ethics and integrity in research, formulate a design of the study, submission of a protocol, and choice of statistical analysis of findings.
