Masters (MSc) in Dental Implantology

Dental implantology is a rapidly growing area of clinical dental care which can dramatically enhance the quality of life for dental patients who have suffered tooth loss. This programme delivers theoretical knowledge and practical clinical experience in the treatment planning, surgical placement, restoration and maintenance of dental implants.

Course description

Our three-year MSc (Clin) Fixed and Removable Prosthodontics course is designed for dental practitioners who want to further their knowledge of prosthodontics up to specialist level.

You will develop skills in providing a range of procedures, including complex removable prostheses, implant-supported prostheses, integrated fixed and removable prostheses, and restoration of tooth wear using direct and indirect materials.

You will gain insight into clinical and technical skills, contemporary prosthodontic techniques, scientific understanding of fixed and removable prosthodontics, diagnosis and treatment planning and reflective prosthodontic practice.

You will undertake up to six clinical sessions per week where you will see, assess and treat patients. You will have the option to undertake more extensive treatment plans with further experience in the broader area of restorative dentistry.

Completion of this course will make you eligible to sit the MPros Royal College examination.

In addition, you will develop research planning and implementation skills through the dissertation unit.

Aims

This course aims to:

provide you with a comprehensive understanding of the complex issues involved in the scientific basis of fixed and removable prosthodontics;
develop your knowledge, skills and attitude to enable critical evaluation and problem solving for prosthodontic problems to allow you to practice independently;
provide you with knowledge and clinical experience of fixed and removable prosthodontics (including an appreciation of an interdisciplinary approach to comprehensive patient care);
ensure you are competent in the design and interpretation of original clinical research (including data collection and statistical analysis);
enable you to plan, implement and complete a research project showing initiative and personal responsibility.

The Hall Technique is a non-invasive dental treatment for managing decayed baby molars without the need for injections or drilling, significantly improving the patient's comfort. This method involves sealing the decay under preformed stainless steel crowns , aligning with modern, biologically-oriented dental care strategies. Notably preferred by children, parents, and dentists , this technique is backed by evidence demonstrating its effectiveness and acceptability, providing a more patient-friendly alternative to traditional fillings . Despite initial concerns about potential progression of sealed caries, long-term studies have shown that the Hall Technique can successfully arrest decay, reducing the risk of pain and infection associated with untreated carious teeth . Originating from the work of Dr. Norna Hall in Scotland, this technique simplifies the restoration of primary molars by cementing a crown directly over the decayed tooth without prior caries removal or tooth prepa...

Replacement of multiple teeth follows generally the same process as replacement of one tooth. However, if two adjacent teeth are required to be replaced they can be supported on a single implant. The entire set of teeth in a jaw can be supported on a minimum of four implants, while in some cases up to […] Original post here: Replacing multiple teeth with dental implant supported prostheses.
