Course Objective

It is aimed to explain the etiological factors and treatments that play a role in the emergence and progression of periodontal diseases. To teach the causes, pathogenesis and epidemiology of periodontal diseases, to teach clinical and radiological findings and diagnostic methods of gingivitis and periodontitis. To teach clinical examination of periodontal tissues, to teach techniques, tools and instruments, index systems used in clinical and radiological periodontal examination, to evaluate periodontal prognosis.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   1 Lists the mechanisms in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease
2   2. Lists the diagnostic criteria of periodontal diseases and classifies the diseases.
3   3. Classifies gingival diseases, distinguishes different gingival diseases
4   4. Classifies periodontitis, distinguishes different types of periodontitis
5   5. Counts the clinical periodontal examination steps, determines the prognosis according to the examination findings, counts the treatment steps in order
6   6 Counts and does what needs to be done in non-surgical periodontal treatment, detects traumatic occlusion, knows and lists the use of drugs

Assessment Criteria

1. The student should be able to distinguish between healthy periodontal tissues and unhealthy periodontal tissues.
2. The student should be able to define the concepts of pocket and attachment, which are fundamental in the diagnosis, classification, treatment planning and patient follow-up of periodontal diseases.
3. The student should be able to define local and systemic etiological factors that play a role in the emergence and progression of periodontal diseases,
4. The student should be able to classify periodontal diseases, and make a differential definition of clinical conditions as a result of examining the diseases in question.
