notes,
laboratory
and

7. Clinically record the status of pulpal and periradicular tissues through clinical and
radiographic examinations.
8. Be familiar with major pulpal and periradicular pathology and their signs and symptoms.
9. Develop a differential diagnosis between endodontic and periodontal disease.
10. Develop a differential diagnosis between endodontic and non-endodontic disease.
11. Take necessary radiographs to interpret osseous changes related to pulpal and periradicular
pathology.
12. Select or differentiate cases for treatment or referral based on knowledge, experience and
difficulty.
13. Determine the prognosis for the endodontically treated tooth and the possibility of
endodontic surgery.

Course Description
Introduction:
The constantly evolving flora of human infection, the recent researches in the
etiology of dental diseases, the advent of opportunistic and nosocomial infections, the newer and
advanced diagnostic techniques and the varieties of currently available antibiotics, demand that
the students keep abreast of contemporary advances in the field.
The oral microbiology course will specially emphasize and reinforce the earlier
Microbiology 322 MAC course and other related basic biologic and clinical science disciplines
with particular attention given to their meaningful correlation. The major topics covered in this
course will be:
1. The primary oral infections including dental caries and periodontal disease.
2. Systemic infections with oral manifestations.
3. Infective diseases of occupational and personal concern.
4. Diagnostic, treatment and preventive aspect of these diseases.
Course Objectives:
By the end of the course the students should:
1. Have a broad overview of the current research, and methods used in studying problems in
dental caries and periodontal disease.
2. Have an understanding of the broad range of infection diseases affecting the oral cavity.
3. Have an understanding of the clinical and biological factors to be considered in the
appropriate use of antimicrobial drugs.
4. Be aware of the contemporary principles and practices of laboratory diagnostic
techniques and interpretation of laboratory reports.
5. Have and understanding of hospital acquired infections and infections in the
compromised host.
