Although conventional implant protocols are taught the MSc Specialist Practice of Restorative Aesthetic Dentistry and Implantology considers implantology from a restorative prospective. Emphasis is placed on restoring and devising restoratively driven treatment plans incorporating implants.

Consideration will be given to immediate loading and placement protocols employing both screw and the cement retained prosthesis.

Module 1

Patient Assessment

Read more

This module is designed to develop an evidence-based approach to patient selection as well as instil the practical skills required to recognise and provide advanced level treatment modalities and risk assessment in multi-disciplinary procedures. The aim of this module is to highlight potential complications in treatment and for you to be able to develop risk assessment strategies to avoid or minimise these complications. The practice of predominately elective treatments is one of the most challenging and complex fields of medicine as it often entails in-depth knowledge of more than one specialty, each having its unique set of complications that need to be identified and effectively managed.

These challenges can range from unacceptable aesthetics and poor treatment outcomes to irreversible surgical trauma to vital structures and potentially life-threatening haemorrhage. This module develops an understanding of the requirements and skills essential to the safe clinical practice and application of advanced treatment modalities and the challenge of long-term maintenance issues or complications. As it is not possible to prevent all complications, this module also considers essential management strategies and the ethical issues of informed consent and the management of patient expectations. The module develops skills in communication, organisation, and planning, problem solving, treatment planning, risk assessment, recognising ethical responsibility and securing consent.

Module 7

Occlusal Diagnosis and Analysis

Read more

Patient aesthetic awareness coupled with the development of new orthodontic techniques, implant, and restorative rehabilitation have increased the number of adults seeking advanced dental treatment. This has increased the likelihood of dentists having to diagnose and treat the occlusion as part of a larger treatment plan. This multidisciplinary module considers the anatomy, aetiology, and management of occlusion from an orthodontic and restorative perspective.

The aim of this module is to enable the dentist to effectively diagnose and formulate a treatment plan so that the patient can be treated with a comprehensive multidisciplinary approach.
