STUDY

This module supports students to develop effective academic skills, build resilience and wellbeing skills to assist them through their programme of study and beyond. As a dental professional, students are required to have an understanding of the law and moral reasoning is an important skill for health care staff. 

This module is designed to provide students with foundation knowledge regarding the anatomy and
physiology of the head and neck region, considering embryonic development, and the recognition
of normal and variations from normal

This module focusses on periodontal disease and the diagnosis and management to treat patients. 

This module continues to develop knowledge, clinical and technical skills to manage caries and non-carious tooth surface loss.

Students will learn about the disease processes that affect a medical history and how this could impact on the provision of oral health.

This module builds upon previous clinical skills development modules and continues to enhance existing technical clinical skills in the dental simulation laboratory. 

Poor oral health is almost entirely preventable and despite good progress over the last few decades, is still prevalent in many communities. This module looks at prevention of oral diseases at the population and community level, and at the individual level are presented and discussed. Strategies will be identified and considered regarding their effectiveness.

This module will enable students to identify appropriate literature, understand the research process and methods as a basis for the formulation of a research proposal and continue this in the final year Dissertation module.

This module builds upon previous knowledge gained in Dentistry in Society 1, where some of the
concepts around health education and promotion were introduced. Dental public health at a whole
population level will be explored in order to consider current local oral health trends and needs across the East of England.

The final year dissertation will build upon the knowledge and skills gained from the Year 2 Research Skills for Oral Health module. It provides the opportunity for students to engage in a rigorous piece of independent study and to present findings through a dissertation.

This module will focus on supporting the student to transition from a clinician under supervision to that of a registered autonomous practitioner, working effectively in a team.

This module will continue to develop clinical practice skills development in primary and secondary
care placements.
