The clinical component of the program (Clinic and Hospital Dentistry) is supported by a didactic program that includes formal courses, seminars, and lectures in both dental and medical topics, including oral medicine, radiology, conscious sedation, history and physical examination, geriatric dentistry, practice management, literature reviews, and treatment planning.
