PPED 813 - Introduction to Pediatric Dentistry

Cr Hrs: 2 (32-0)

This seminar is an ongoing review of current, pertinent, various clinical case and didactic subject areas associated with pediatric dentistry and related sciences. For postdoctoral students, knowledge of clinical relevant topics is essential to developing theoretical and practical patient management skills. The assessment of clinical related topics from an evidence-based perspective is critical. This seminar helps to provide a mechanism to better prepare the postgraduate pediatric dental student clinical knowledge beyond the pre-doctoral dental education to the level required of the specialty. Students in the Pediatric Dentistry Program participate in this seminar each week throughout their two-year residency. Seminars are led by the Pediatric Dentistry faculty. Other guests and members of the University of Tennessee Health Science Center faculty are invited to participate when their expertise on the seminar topic is considered beneficial to the learning experience.
