• explain the basic design principles of function and aesthetics in fixed prosthetics
• explain and justify the basic work process for model production and design of restorations for conventional and/or digital production of fixed prosthetics
• describe different techniques for additive and subtractive production used in dental technology
• explain the possibilities and limitations of using CAD/CAM in the production of tooth replacements in fixed prosthetics
• explain the importance of colour and shape in the production of tooth replacements
• describe the use of temporary tooth replacements and treatment planning such as a diagnostic mock-up of fixed prosthetics
• describe changes in the natural dentition throughout life and explain concepts related to teeth wearing such as abrasion, attrition and erosion

Skills;

The student can

• master the correct use of materials related to the production of fixed prosthetics
• scan and design crowns and small bridges
• design and create a fully digital and/or partially digital single crown at an acceptable level
• design and produce all-ceramic single crowns, small bridges, inlays/onlays and facets using CAD/CAM or conventional techniques at an acceptable level
• master layering and cut-back techniques in a manner that ensures proper function, aesthetics and hygiene
• design and produce a single implant crown using digital work processes
• design a bite splint using digital production techniques
• produce a separate post that recreates the preparation form for a single crown
• use production equipment for fixed prosthetics in a way that maintains the material’s properties throughout the production process and complies with relevant HSE guidelines

General competence

The student can

• document and present their own work orally and in writing using specialist terminology
• reflect on the quality of their own practical and theoretical work
• carry out systematic literature searches and provide correct source references

Emne 1 består av følgende temaer med undertemaer:

Tema 1: Lærerrollen

• sentrale læreroppgaver
• læreridentitet
• observasjon i klasserommet

Tema 2: Didaktikk

• skolens samfunnsmandat
• læreplanen
• planlegging og gjennomføring av undervisning

Tema 3: Læring

• læringsteorier
• språk og læring
• grunnleggende ferdigheter

Tema 4: Det mangfoldige klasserommet

• sentrale religioner og livssyn i Norge
• norsk livssynshistorie
• elevens rettigheter i et nasjonalt og internasjonalt perspektiv

The following must have been approved in order for the student to take the exam:;

• a minimum attendance of 90 % at demonstration lectures
• a minimum attendance of 80 % in skills training, seminars and compulsory supervision
• individual portfolio in accordance with specified criteria. The portfolio must document all the works and production techniques covered in the course.

Portfolio assessment

Part 1) Two individual written assignments, 3,000 words (+/- 10 per cent).

Part 2) Three individual practical assignments in accordance with set criteria (corresponding ten laboratory days).

Weighting: One overall grade is awarded based on the portfolio. Parts 1 and 2 count equally with respect to grading, but if one or more of the assignments are assessed as ‘fail’, an overall grade of ‘fail’ will awarded for both parts.

Resits/rescheduled exam: The student has the opportunity to rework submitted assignments that have been assessed as 'fail' once. The practical works must then be improved or reproduced.

All aids are permitted, as long as the rules for source referencing are complied with.

Pass/Fail

All exams are assessed by two internal examiners.
