• Insight into different sorts of dental materials and biomaterials which could be useful for
dental treatments. For every one of those materials, chemical and physical reactions
in processing, the most important material-technical indications, procedure of use
and
indications have to be known.
• Special emphasis will be placed on the biomaterials currently (recently) used in a dental
practice. With rapid development in technology, the practicing dentist must have a
working knowledge of the fundamental properties of these materials to meet the challenges
of modern
dentistry.
• knowledge of the techniques required to control the materials properties in order
to communicate more effectively with dental laboratory technicians.

c.1Use the materials properly during dental treatments

c.2 Solve the problems that will aid in making appropriate selections of materials for each
patient's unique needs.
c.3 Inform the patient correctly, objectively and sufficiently about possible side-effects of
the materials.

Through group working in research, the dental student will:
d.1. Get used to co-operate with people to gain a general benefit
(give/take information to/from them without any selfish behaviors)
d.2. Gain the skill of discussing and accepting different
opinions d.3. Learn new positive characters from the other
members

3.1. Lectures (Slides, transparencies, handouts)
3.2. Research work Students should learn proper scientific literature understanding and
gaining independently the correct knowledge. Every staff member and assistant lecturer (total no.
7) was responsible for about 50 students.
Each 50-students group was randomly further subdivided into three subgroups (about 15
students each), which were responsible for working together for one large aim (e. g. one of the
commercially and recently used dental materials). Every student in each subgroup was
requested to search for gaining only one correct knowledge through the internationally
published scientific papers. Though table discussions in two-hours weekly sessions (during the
second semester), every student was allowed to discuss his works in front of all other students.
The evaluation of
his work was partly through these table discussion and partly through scientific writing of
the grained knowledge clearly and concisely.
92
Student assessment methods
Written exams (MCQ) to assess the students’s ability to recall information, to interpret data or
diagrams, to solve problems and to analyse and evaluate materials.
Written exams (Short notes) to assess the student's ability to develop and organize ideas
and present these in a coherent argument.
Oral exam to assess the student’s ability to answer questions logically and in a self-
confident manner in front of the examiners.
Research work evaluation: The evaluation of the student work was partly through these
table discussion and partly through the scientific writing of the grained knowledge clearly
and concisely.

9.1. A laboratory belong to Dental Biomaterial department is required

for proper students training. OR any other laboratory belong to
another department that offer us enough place (to perform good
training of the students) or enough time (to make a good schedule
that allow all the students to work properly).
9.2. Enough amounts of dental materials are required for students’ exercises.
9.3. A Video and a television are required to show the students the
practical work during the laboratory sessions.
9.4. Equipments are required to qualify the research work of the students.

course is given
programme
Date of specification/revision September 2007/October 2008

• To teach students the basic concepts of microbiology: bacterial, viral and
fungal morphology, metabolism, physiology, genetics, and induced diseases, especially
endemic in the locality: their transmission, laboratory diagnosis, treatment,
prophylaxis and
control and their molecular biology.
• It also aimed at helping the students know and understand the effect of
different antimicrobial agents on each organism as well.
• To provide students with the essential knowledge of the structure and function of the
immune system, mechanism of immunity and immune mediated diseases as well as
the
different methods used to diagnose and control such diseases.
• To make students aware of the different nosocomial infections and their mode
of transmission and to familiarize students with the different principles of sterilization
and infection control.

k- knowledge and understanding
95
a.6. illustrate general (bacterial, viral, fungal) morphology, physiology and
genetics. a.7.describe the principles of growing and cultivating microorganisms.
a.8. describe the scientific basis of using antimicrobial agents, their mode of actio
n, application and complications in vivo and in vitro.
a.9. explain the host parasite relationship and microbial virulence and pathogenesis.
a.10. explain the physiology of the immune system, its structure, normal function,
beneficial
and harmful reactions.
a.11. describe microorganisms of medical importance, their virulence, pathogenesis, clinical
diseases they cause, diagnosis, treatment, prevention and control.
a.12. describe nosocomial infections, principles and methods of decontamination and infection
prevention and control.
a.13. explain the clinical manifestations of systemic infections and different organisms causing
them, and how to reach a diagnosis.
l- Intellectual skills
b.6. set up a policy for using the different laboratory procedures necessary to
approach diagnosis of the common infectious clinical conditions with prioritization
of the most appropriate and most cost effective tests to be used.
b.7. interpret results and reports of microbiological, serological,
immunological and molecular tests.
b.8. categorize a microorganism as a bacterium, virus or fungus according to
standard taxonomy.
b.9. determine the appropriate antibiotics used in treatment of each disease.
b.10. appreciate the danger of handling and use of infectious agents on community.
m- Professional and practical skills

c.21. perform simple, Gram and Zeihl-Neelsen strains of bacteria and identify according to
morphology and the characteristics of stained preparations.
c.22. identify microscopic stained preparations of the most medically important bacteria.
c.23. identify culture media (with and without growth) and the different biochemical tests used
to identify bacteria and diagnose infectious diseases.
c.24. identify antibiograms used for choice of proper antibiotics.
c.25. identify different methods of sterilization, disinfection and infection control.
n- General and transferable skills

d.6. evaluate the risk of disseminating infections in the hospital and community thro ugh
other cases, carriers or even healthcare workers during manipulating and handling
infectious material.
d.7. collaborate with his colleagues in a team work inside the lab, as well as solving problems.
