Through the UIC corporate email you can contact the person in charge of the subject: Samir Aboul-Hosn Centenero samir@uic.es Only emails sent directly by the student enrolled in PMQ3 will be answered. All students are invited to review the partial and / or final test although, in the event of an error in the calculation of the final grade, it may cause the student's grade to be lower. Any note less than 5 will be a failure. Class entry is not allowed once the teacher has started the class.

Introduction

The Medical-Surgical Pathology 3 (PMQ3) deepens the knowledge about dental implantology and pre-prosthetic surgery, and makes an introduction on three types of pathology always from a surgical point of view: -pathology of the TMJ (temporomandibular joint) -pathology of dentoskeletal deformities -head and neck oncological pathology It is the subject where some of the knowledge that has been acquired in the PMQ1 and PMQ2 -dental implantology is consolidated and deepened, very important concepts of advanced oral surgery and maxillofacial surgery are introduced to complete the surgical knowledge of the dental student.

Pre-course requirements

Having passed the subjects: "Oral Medical-Surgical Pathology 1" and "Oral and Maxillofacial Medicine"

Objectives

To deepen the knowledge of rehabilitation with dental implants and preprosthetic surgery techniques, explaining the different options for advanced implant surgery in patients with moderate and severe bone atrophy. I Have the theoretical foundations of: - Pathology of the temporomandibular joint: anatomy, diagnosis and therapeutic options - Head and neck oncology: highlighting the importance of screening and early diagnosis, as well as the follow-up of treatment protocols for squamous cell carcinoma of the oropharynx -Orthognathic surgery and dento-skeletal deformations: understand the different deformities, the diagnosis and the therapeutic options and highlight the importance of coordination with the orthodontist.

Syllabus

Oncological pathology of the head and neck: makes an introduction of the surgical anatomy of the head and neck region, highlights the importance of screening for oropharyngeal cancer in the field of dental consultation, suspected diagnosis and biopsy of intraoral premalignant lesions, medical and surgical treatment of different tumors at the oropharyngeal level, local and regional involvement of these tumors, their sequelae, and possible post-treatment oral rehabilitation.
Oral implantology and preprosthetic surgery: in PMQ3 we explain advanced surgery techniques in implant oral rehabilitation, therapeutic options in cases of moderate-severe bone atrophy, new paradigms of this type of surgery, use of 3D technology and more frequent complications in implantology dental.   Introduction to the treatment of dentoskeletal deformities: this subtopic introduces the student to the basics of orthognathic surgery, explaining the decision-making process based on the diagnosis as well as conventional and three-dimensional preoperative planning, anatomical fundamentals and surgical treatment, as well as surgical results in the functional and aesthetic field.   Temporo-mandibular joint: the anatomy and functionalism of the joint is reviewed, its exploration, the different pathologies and invasive (surgical) treatments to the supply.   Topic 1 Oral Implantology and Preprosthetic Surgery Topic 2 Oncological pathology of the head and neck Topic 3 Introduction to the treatment of dentoskeletal deformities T opic 4 Temporomandibular joint (TMJ)
