Theoretical – Practical Program
The study plan for the Master’s Degree in Advanced Aesthetic Restorative Dentistry is structured over three academic years, during which the student must complete 180 ECTS. The curriculum is designed to offer the student all the necessary skills to become a specialist in advanced aesthetic restorative dentistry.
The current qualification system will be used to assess students.
The 180 ECTS will be distributed over 5 modules. The first two years will include subjects related to the field of aesthetic restorative dentistry, while the third year will include subjects related to laboratory techniques for oral rehabilitation and the fourth year is dedicated to the Final Master’s Degree Project.
Module 1
Scientific foundations of aesthetic restorative dentistry
Module 2
Advanced aesthetic restorative dentistry - Clinical Practice
Module 3
Multidisciplinary aesthetic restorative dentistry. Laboratory
Module 4
Final master's degree project
Module 5
Optional module                                                                                                                  
  • Module 1
Scientific foundations of aesthetic restorative dentistry
 
This module is made up of two subjects. The first, “Scientific evidence in Aesthetic Restorative Dentistry”, is made up of two parts. The first brings together all the subjects related to scientific literature on dental pathology and treatments, dental prosthetics, prosthetic implantology, and temporomandibular joint dysfunction. The subjects will go over both traditional and well-established concepts in the field of aesthetic restorative dentistry, as well as in current scientific literature. The second part will feature scientific methodology, biostatistics, bibliographic research and science communication. The second subject includes topics on studying the new technologies and materials that the industry puts at the disposal of the profession. The UDC and LAB activities will be carried out in the facilities at the University Dental Clinic.
  • Module 2
Advanced aesthetic restorative dentistry - Clinical Practice
 
This module brings together all the subjects related to clinical practice in aesthetic restorative dentistry that have been covered over the two academic years of the Master’s course. The UDC and LAB activities will be carried out in the facilities at the University Dental Clinic. This module also includes the clinical sessions held in the departments of Prosthetics, Pathology, Dental Therapeutics, Periodontics, Orthodontics and Surgery. These are multidisciplinary sessions that will help the student understand their patients’ pathologies, prevent new problems and ensure the aesthetic and functional oral rehabilitation of the patient.
  • Module 3
Multidisciplinary aesthetic restorative dentistry. Laboratory
 
Module 3 includes the laboratory practice necessary for students to learn how to perform direct and indirect surgical techniques. Students will also learn how to make the necessary prostheses during the treatments carried out in the clinic. In addition, the module includes theoretical and practical laboratory training for removable prosthesis treatments, as well as treatments for temporomandibular dysfunction. The UDC and LAB activities will be carried out in the facilities at the University Dental Clinic.
  • Module 4
Final master's degree project
 
This module will be carried out by the students on the master's course. It is made up of the "Final Master’s Degree Project", based on a clinical or research project idea approved during the 1st semester.
 
During the 1st semester of the master's degree, Final Master’s Degree Project ideas will be submitted for approval from the Master's teaching staff. During the 2nd, 3rd and 4th semesters, students will complete the Final Master’s Degree Project. Module 4 is worth 6 ECTS, and students should have learned the methods required to carry out for the practical part of the research and actively develop their "Final Master’s Degree Project”.
The content of the FINAL MASTER’S DEGREE PROJECT may have a clinical or research profile depending on each student and with the approval of the Master's teaching staff.
The FINAL MASTER’S DEGREE PROJECT should be carried out throughout the Master's course under the supervision of the corresponding tutor. At the beginning of the course the Master’s coordinator will assign each student with a tutor, depending on their chosen study topic.
  • Module 5
Optional module
 
Surgery, implants, periodontics, endodontics.
In Module 5, the student will choose between one of the subjects indicated. Each one of the subjects will be taught by the corresponding department.
Courses and conferences
During their studies, all our students will be expected to attend conferences and courses imparted by renowned specialists in the field of restorative dentistry. They are also expected to attend scientific conferences, such as those organised by the Spanish Stomatological Prostheses and Aesthetics Association (Sociedad Española de Prótesis Estomatológica y Estética) and the Spanish Conservative Dentistry Association (Sociedad Española Odontología Conservadora), and to participate with oral communications and posters. Students will be notified with sufficient time to allow them to programme any activities that may be affected by the timing of these courses and conferences.
They are also expected to publish the results of their research in high-impact journals.

The student will be assessed in a number of different ways. Continuous assessment will be the main method used.

  • In the laboratory sessions, students will be assessed on their direct and personal participation in the activity. Students will be assessed on how well they have acquired the knowledge and skills necessary to handle laboratory equipment in terms of dental and biomedicine materials.
  • In the seminars, students will be assessed on their direct and personal participation in the seminars themselves. Students will be assessed on their theoretical, technical and clinical knowledge related to the patient and their pathology. Additionally, students will be evaluated on their ability to solve problems in clinical situations where not all the information is provided, and how clinical cases are presented (ability to communicate, spoken expression and body language, use of bibliographic databases and computer resources, and so on). Clinical cases will be presented in a suitable computer format (like "Microsoft Office PowerPoint Presentation") and will be included on the clinical documentation of each patient. Teaching staff should be able to be consult them at any time.
  • After the FMP has been assessed by the Scientific Committee, the student will be able to defend their Final Master’s Degree Project before a panel chosen by the Board.
