2 Description of Mandatory Courses GMED 701 GENERAL MEDICINE (1Cr.:1Lec): To provide the residents with adequate knowledge in common medical diseases related to dentistry. Recognizing their symptoms and signs with explaining the pathophysiologic basis. Selecting the proper investigations suitable for each case and appropriate treatment of these diseases. Also, to deal properly with medical emergencies that could happen in dental office in addition to basic life support procedures. MICR 701 MICROBIOLOGY AND IMMUNOLOGY (1Cr.:1Lec): To provide the residents with adequate basic knowledge concerning: epidemiology, pathogenesis, laboratory diagnosis and management of infections caused by: Gram positive bacteria, Gram negative bacteria, anaerobic bacteria and Mycobacteria. Identifying etiology, epidemiology, laboratory diagnosis and management of bacterial pathogens causing dental and periodontal infections. Recognizing the immune response against infectious diseases and immune response disorders (hypersensitivity). ORAD 701 MAXILLOFACIAL IMAGING (1Cr.:1Lec): This course introduces the residents to the basic principles of digital intra and extraoral imaging techniques including panoramic, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Computed Tomography (CT) and Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT). The application of these modalities to maxillofacial problems such as pre and post surgical implant assessment, maxillary sinus, fractures, tumors, orthodontics and temporomandibular joint evaluation. OPTH 702 ORAL PATHOLOGY (1Cr.:1Lec): The course aims to introduce the post graduate residents to the scope of oral and maxillofacial pathology and provides them with knowledge about caries, pulp pathology, peri-radicular pathology, gingival and periodontal inflammation and its sequelae. The candidate will gain knowledge about the different and recent types of tissue biopsies. In addition, odontogenic/nonodontogenic cysts of the jaws and perioral soft tissues, oral syndromic lesions, benign and malignant odontogenic tumors, the spectrum of potentially neoplastic lesions and conditions, dysplasia grading, squamous cell carcinoma and mesenchymal tumours, salivary and other mucosal glands lesions, jaw and craniofacial bones disorders and lesions and finally temporomandibular joint disorders will be clearly recognized and discussed. OSRG 701 ORAL SURGERY I (1Cr.:1Lec): This course focuses on the principles of medicine and surgery. It includes wound healing, physical examination, medical management of surgical patient, laboratory investigations, fluid and electrolyte management, nutritional support and management of operative and postoperative surgical and medical complications. This course also discusses the diagnosis and treatment of simple and complicated odontogenic infections.

3 OSRG 702 ORAL SURGERY II (2:2Lec): This course focuses on the pathologic conditions affecting the bone and soft tissues of the oral cavity, including management of maxillary sinus affection, management of odontogenic and nonodontogenic cysts, benign and malignant tumours of the oral and maxillofacial region, management of bone diseases as well as management of salivary gland diseases and tumors. This course will also emphasis on basic implant dentistry. OSRG 703 ORAL SURGERY III (1Cr.: Lec): This course discusses the initial management of the trauma patient, the soft tissue injuries and dento-alveolar trauma as well as principles of management of facial trauma and gun-shot injuries. They have to discuss the differential diagnosis and possible treatment modalities of facial pain, the anatomy, physiology and pathophysiology of the temporomandibular joint, the hypomobility and hypermobility and finally the surgical and nonsurgical management of the different joint affections. The course also will gives a broad idea about advanced dental implantology and the most recent researches concerning this field. OSRG 704 ORAL SURGERY IV (1Cr.:1Lec): This course gives a broad idea about the craniofacial growth and development, diagnosis and treatment planning as well as principles of correction of facial deformities and the cleft lip and palate patients. It gives an idea also about the facial esthetic surgery. Then the course moves to the principles of soft and hard tissue reconstructive surgery of the jaw with the concept of Distraction Osteogenesis. Suggesting combined oral surgery/orthodontic treatment planning seminars and lectures during this semester to learn about orthodontics possibilities and limitations. OSRG 705 APPLIED SURGICAL ANATOMY (1Cr.:1Lec): This course aims to introduce the residents to the field of maxillofacial surgery and provide them with an overview of the anatomy of the head and neck, also it will provide them with knowledge about the blood and nerve supply to the face, surgical anatomy of the infratemporal and pterygoplatine fossae, orbital anatomy, lymphatic drainage and block neck dissection. Finally, it will afford knowledge about applied surgical anatomy of the maxillary sinus, salivary glands and temporomandibular joint. OSRG 707 PAIN AND ANXIETY CONTROL (1Cr.:1Lec): Medical emergencies: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation, basic cardiac life support, advanced cardiac life support, paediatric life support, advanced trauma life support, hospital admission, management of the hospitalized patient, emergency room and Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and clearance rules. Pain and anxiety control: pharmacology, pharmacodynamics, medical emergencies, drugs and drug interaction for pain and anxiety control in oral and maxillofacial surgery including local and general anesthesia, inhalation and intravenous sedation techniques with management of complications of sedation.

4 OSRG 709 JOURNAL CLUB I (1Cr.:1Lec): OSRG 710 JOURNAL CLUB II (1Cr.:1Lec): It reviews classical and recent maxillofacial surgery literature. Residents shall be able to analyze and criticize the scientific and clinical reviewed literature correlating them to their daily clinical practice. OSRG 791 ORAL SURGERY CLINICS I (2:6Clnc): OSRG 792 ORAL SURGERY CLINICS II (2:6Clnc): OSRG 793 ORAL SURGERY CLINICS III (2:6Clnc): OSRG 794 ORAL SURGERY CLINICS IV (2:6Clnc): The clinical courses run in parallel with the theoretical courses, aiming to gain the experience of the surgical removal of deeply impacted teeth. Also, the course will provide the candidate to attain experience in preprosthetic surgeries including hard and soft tissue management, the use of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) and Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF), different types of biopsy intake, excision of soft tissue lesions and benign tumors, enucleation and marsupilization of large bony cysts including apicectomies. Also, the student will achieve management of odontogenic infection and ductal salivary gland stone removal, management of dentoalveolar fracture and closed reduction of mandibular fracture, dealing with several Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) disorders focusing on the arthrocentesis techniques. Moreover, implant placement in atrophic mandible and maxilla with bone augmentation and membrane placement together with sinus lifting procedures will be done. Finally, providing experience in how to perform a full case presentation concerning cases needing orthognathic surgeries, and full case presentation with the appropriate management protocol to patients complaining of cleft lip/and or palate. PHBS 702 STATISTICAL METHODS FOR DENTAL RESEARCH (1Cr.:1Lec): Descriptive methods, elementary probability, distributions, populations, and samples, methods for analyzing percentage data, paired and unpaired measurement data, regression, correlation and analysis of variance. PHBS 704 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY (1Cr.:1Lec): Description and illustration of practical and experimental procedures in dental research; evaluation of literature and design, writing of research protocols. This course provides the student through the process of developing and designing his or her research project. Course projects include developing a hypothesis, establishing specific aims to test, formulating a materials and method section. The course trains for consent writing, ethics-oriented methodology and ethics of clinical trials. PHBS 706 MEDICAL EDUCATION (1Cr.:1Lec): This course will provide the principles of leadership and management in health professions education, learning environment and curriculum development, new trends in medical education, measuring health professions competencies, towards quality and accreditation in

5 health professions education, scientific thinking and presentation skills. principles of quality assurance are discussed including differences between planning, improvement and quality control, use of indicators, patient safety, auditing and accreditation.
