Description

This module assesses and encourages the assimilation of newly developed dental implant technical skills and theoretical knowledge into clinical practice. It has two elements, based on the clinical cases managed by the postgraduates. Each postgraduate orally presents selected cases to their peers and lecturers who are invited to critique and comment on these in a structured way. A rational approach to decision-making and treatment will be supported by a clinical log book of the clinical work describing the management and outcomes of their cases.
