PEDO 5304 - Case Analysis and Treatment Planning

The purpose of this course is to provide the pediatric dentistry postgraduate student with experience and discipline in thorough case work-up, case analysis and oral presentation. A basis is provided in this seminar format for stimulating discussion for pediatric dentistry concepts as they relate to the practical aspects of providing treatment. A further benefit of this course is to promote the sharing of ideas and substantiated opinions of diagnosis and treatment among faculty as well as other residents. Each postgraduate student makes an oral presentation of a particular case that he/ she has been involved with and has completed dental treatment in a prescribed format (data gathering, prioritized treatment plan and risk/ benefits/ alternatives).
