Course history

Introduction

The course focuses on the further development and final individual assessment of the student's dental technology skills and action competence in the chosen specialisation, fixed or removable prosthetics. The integration of theoretical knowledge and reflection on clinical experience from external practical training will contribute to an increased understanding of the complexity of different cases and the diversity of patients. Laboratory technology and material technology solutions, challenges and limitations are key topics in the course. Critical self-assessment is emphasised to ensure that the quality of the product is in line with the professional requirements and provisions issued by the authorities.

Breakdown of credits: Theory 2 credits and skills training 13 credits.

Required preliminary courses

Passed the first and second years of the programme.

Learning outcomes

Emnet omhandler abstrakt algebra som involverer grupper, ringer, kropper, moduler og representasjoner. Dette tillater oss å overføre vår forståelse for tall og linear algebra inn i et mer generelt rammeverk som blant annet brukes i kryptografi. Symmetri spiller også en viktig rolle i emnet, og viktige sider av dette belyses og forståelsen videreutvikles.

Teaching and learning methods

The work and teaching methods include demonstration lectures, self-study, seminars and skills training in the university laboratories. The skills training is preparation for the exam and provides the student with the opportunity to further develop their skills relating to the production of relevant dental technology products in the chosen specialisation, fixed or removable prosthetics.

Parts of the skills training in the laboratory is supervised. The student also receives individual supervision and feedback in relation to their own study progression. The two last weeks of the course are dedicated to individual practical exams in the university laboratories. During the exam, the student must demonstrate quality and independence in the execution of their work on the practical work assignments allocated in their programme option.

Course requirements

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

  • a minimum attendance of 90 % at demonstration lectures and lab exercises
  • a minimum attendance of 80 % in skills training, seminars and compulsory supervision

Assessment

Individual practical exam with a written self-assessment in the chosen specialisation, eight working days.Scope:

Specialisation A - Fixed prosthetics, six to eight practical tooth replacement units produced in the university laboratories.

Specialisation B - Removable prosthetics, six to eight practical tooth replacement units created in the university laboratories.

An overall grade is awarded for the exam based on an overall academic assessment. All the submitted practical tooth replacement units must be assessed as A-E in order for the student to pass the exam.

Resits/rescheduled exam: If one or more of the practical tooth replacement units are awarded a fail grade, the student has the right to submit a reworked version once.
