Clinical examination and the prescription and interpretation of special investigations form the cornerstone of contemporary oral diagnoses and treatment planning in dental practice.
OnlineOverview:
This CPD Masterclass aims to provide candidates with the necessary evidence-based knowledge to assess restorability, differentially diagnose various oral diseases and conditions using an array of investigations, including dental imaging, and justify the need for such special investigations. Moreover, candidates will also get the opportunity to apply and share the acquired knowledge in the form of small-group, case-based, clinical discussions.
Learning Outcomes:
- Acquire fundamental knowledge of contemporary examination techniques and oral diagnosis skills using a systematic and evidence-based examination and analysis approach
- Provide justification for prescribing an array of special investigations using a myriad of clinical tools as part of differential diagnosis
- Arrive at an evidence-based justification for a definitive oral diagnosis
- Apply acquired knowledge and critical thinking skills in the form of real-life clinical scenarios as part of a facilitated small-group case-based learning approach
- Share and present clinical findings with other groups in the form of a peer-assisted learning approach
