This course is designed to provide fundamental knowledge on the development, morphology, histology, neuroanatomy, circulation, and function of basic tissue, and dentofacial structures including the salivary glands, teeth, and the temporomandibular joint. The understanding of this science is essential: it lays the foundation for evidenced-based insight into the form and structure of the orofacial complex. This is a mainly seminar-based and discussion-based course with some didactic lectures. Topic handouts are provided electronically for guidance. Reference to the highly recommended reading list is encouraged and advised. Attendance is required per College of Dentistry Policy. Mid-term and final examination are mandatory. Grades obtained through some quizzes may be counted as extra-credits in the final grade.
