|Course Description |

|This course is designed to continue the previous one in providing students with the basics of the Dental Materials' science |

|and a perspective on the advancements in newly developed materials or improvements to those currently in use. This includes |

|the introduction to the main dental materials applied in the dental services (clinics, labs, hospitals..), their physical |

|properties, handling characteristics, their use in the fabrication of dental appliances or the maintenance of dental materials|

|once they are placed in the mouth. Such knowledge will be applied for the selection and provision of optimal dental care |

|within the dental clinic and is instrumental in educating patients in the home maintenance of restorations and prostheses as |

|well as preventive education and therapy. |
