During the first two years, students will learn about the structure of the<br>human body, life sciences and research principles in the field, clinical and professional skills<br>(communication and procedural skills, medical ethics), and the basics of public health. The teaching of<br>these integrated modules will be carried out using different teaching methods (lectures, role-playing<br>games, practical work, work in a simulation laboratory, etc.). Students will master key practical skills<br>(working on phantoms) in the phantom class. Through simulation teaching, students will gain<br>knowledge-based experience; Students will also study regional anatomy through virtual dissection on<br>mannequins and discussion of specific clinical cases. Besides, from the very first year, students will be<br>involved in a problem-based learning course (PBL) that will be long-lasting. At the end of the specialty<br>phantom courses, students take an integrated exam (MCQ and OSCE).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Part II &#8211; Mechanisms of Health and Illness (III-IV course)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Attention is paid to the clinical part (propaedeutic and clinical skills). This part is mainly focused on<br>the most common symptoms and signs of the disease. At the same time, students improve their practical<br>skills. During the III year, students learn diagnostic thinking by discussing cases in different medical<br>fields, which in turn helps to integrate the acquired knowledge and prepares students to fully<br>understand the clinical subjects, most of which is offered in the program from IV years. During the IV<br>year, students study the main dental and clinical subjects in the form of clinical rotations &#8211; dermatology,<br>pediatrics, otorhinolaryngology, etc. These modules are taught in both outpatient and clinical settings.<br>The most important part is the inclusion of clinical courses of the major field of study, during which<br>the students continue to master the clinical skills and symptoms of dental diseases. At the end of<br>most study courses, students take an integrated exam (MCQ and OSCE).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Part III &#8211; Clinical Courses in Dentistry (V Course)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The third part is the continuation of clinical courses in the major field of study (Conservative, Surgical<br>and Orthopedic Dentistry, Pediatric Dentistry and Pediatric Surgery, Orthodontics), during which<br>students continue to study professional skills. During the V year, students will have additional clinical<br>activities to strengthen and refine their competencies in the major field of study. At the end of some<br>rotations, students take an integrated test. Within the same year, students are given a variety of clinical<br>assignments, the completion of which prepares graduate students for future specialization and<br>postgraduate residency programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-aim-of-the-dentistry-program\">The Aim of the Dentistry Program<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The program aims to train a professional dentist under modern international standards, who: Possesses<br>the theoretical knowledge and practical skills required for professional activities (1), who qualitatively<br>uses research, ethical and communication skills (2), develops professionally in an ever-changing<br>environment (3).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"learning-outcomes-of-the-dentistry-program\">Learning Outcomes of the Dentistry Program<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Describes <\/strong>the systems of the human body, its essential elements, tissues, their interconnections, developmental features, and functions; <strong>Explains <\/strong>the anatomical, physiological features of the body and the biochemical processes taking place in the living organism; Discusses the organism as an integrated system. <strong>Recognizes <\/strong>and characterizes cases of norm and pathology, identifies causes of pathologies. <strong>Lists <\/strong>the preventive measures and understands the necessity and importance of their implementation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Identifies <\/strong>the construction of dental equipment, rules of operation, and management. <strong>Lists <\/strong>the purpose of the dental instruments and medical and dental materials, methods of their application. <strong>Chooses <\/strong>the methods of aseptic and antiseptic, <strong>explains <\/strong>their importance in maintaining sanitary and hygienic standards. <strong>Conducts <\/strong>the waste management\/utilization procedures.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Explains <\/strong>the etiology and pathogenesis of tooth soft and hard tissue diseases. <strong>Formulates <\/strong>a diagnosis, including differential diagnoses.
