Introduction
Dentistry and Dental Prosthodontics
The main goal of the new Undergraduate Program in Dentistry (in English language) is to graduate Doctors capable of competence, clinical expertise, and ethics in providing oral care to patients. The students will take courses on basic sciences, such as oral physiology and pathology, medical topics related to dentistry, and all dental topics (e.g. restorative dentistry, endodontics, periodontology, oral surgery, implantology, prosthodontics, orthodontics, gnathology). Each topic will be addressed in lectures and practicals, in order to increase the theoretical knowledge and develop the professional skills of the students.
The undergraduate program is based on the recommendation of ADEE (Association of Dental European Education) and of the Italian Minister of Education. In their last year, all the students must work on patients daily, using the innovative means of digital dentistry and new dental materials.

Program delivery
In addition to in-presence teaching, which continues to be the preferred method also in the next Academic Year, every single lesson will be simultaneously live-streamed and/or video recorded and uploaded on our digital platform for subsequent viewing. This mode is essential for students who are temporarily unable to be on premises.
