Course Description
This course aims to teach endodontic microbiology, internal and external root resorptions and management methods, advanced root canal obturation techniques (carrier based filling, warm vertical and gutta percha injection techniques), endodontic immunology, pulp cells and pulp-dentin complex. Recent endodontic materials, calcium cilicate based cements and their applications, vital and regenerative endodontics are aimed to be described. Students will be able to describe endodontic microbiology, internal and external root resorptions and management methods, learn advanced root canal obturation techniques such as carrier based filling, warm vertical and gutta percha injection techniques, describe endodontic immunology, pulp cells and pulp-dentin complex, and recognize endodontic materials, calcium cilicate based cement, vital and regenerative endodontics.
