Course Description:
 
 This is a two credit hour course made up of Didactic and Laboratory technique as
Introduction to Pediatric Dentistry. The course holds in the second half of the third year.
 
 The primary goals of Pediatric Dentistry include the diagnosis and prevention of
disease, the preservation of the natural dentition and the restoration of health, function
and esthetics of stomatognathic system.  The lectures will cover all these topics.
 
 The primary function of the laboratory is the development of psychomotor skills
of the dentist.  The psychomotor skills must be highly developed in order to provide
quality care of the children.
 
 Due to the high degree of skill required, disappointments and frustrations may
occur during the process of learning and development.  Some students, for example, will
need to repeat various projects.  However, the pre-clinical laboratory is the place where
mistakes can occur without damage to the patient, and where skills can be developed to a
high level of proficiency.
 
 In order to maximize the benefits of each laboratory session, students will be
expected to study the laboratory manual preparation for each project.
