Course description:
The clinical practice of Endodontics should extend over at least two years. Although endodontics should be taught as a separate subject, in the clinical situation it should be practiced as an integral part of the overall management of the patient. Ideally, a minimum of 12 teeth should be treated – this should include at least two molars and two-rooted premolar tooth. Where possible, students should provide suitable restorations for the teeth that they have treated endodontically. The patient’s clinical record should include provision for the recording and marking of all relevant stages and details of the root canal treatment.
