Master's in Endodontics - Theoretical

Target Audience

Students of the Dentistry program, dentists, and endodontists seeking to analyze scientific knowledge within modern Endodontics.

Justification

The scientific and technological evolution of Endodontics requires constant updates for dental surgeons to perform safer, more predictable, and biologically effective treatments. In this context, the Master’s program in Endodontics aims to provide updated training based on scientific evidence and the main innovations in the specialty.

The course covers essential content such as endodontic microanatomy, diagnosis, computed tomography, three-dimensional planning, mechanized instrumentation, and modern techniques for root canal obturation, contributing to the enhancement of clinical skills for professionals and the provision of excellent treatments for patients.

General Objective

To introduce students to clinical practice with new technologies, providing biological, safe, and effective treatment.

Specific Objectives

• To understand endodontic microanatomy;
• To learn about pathology and diagnosis in Endodontics;
• To diagnose lesions that mimic endodontic lesions;
• To comprehend endodontic treatment and new technologies (apical locators, digital radiography/tomography, ultrasound, laser);
• To understand the use of tomography in Endodontics;
• To plan endodontic treatment in three dimensions;
• Mechanized endodontic treatment from access to obturation (emphasis on molars);
• To learn root canal obturation techniques: thermoplastic technique (single cone).
