Introduction:

This course is offered as a continuation of 331 DSD, which is taught during the first half of the second year. The course is offered as lectures, practical [microscopic] sessions and clinicopathologic conferences [CPC] arranged in such a way that the practical and the CPC sessions are correlated with the subject matter [topics] covered in the didactic lectures.

Course Objectives:

Oral pathology is the specialty of dentistry and pathology which deals with the nature, identification, causes, processes, effect and management of diseases affecting oral and maxillofacial regions.

The course is designed to enable the students to diagnose different diseases using clinical, radiographic, microscopic features as well as biochemical and other analytical methods.

The didactic part is offered with the primary emphasis on diagnosis and differential diagnosis of diseases involving the mouth and the paraoral region.

Add extra credit hour for active learning and sharing in public health programs. During the semester unscheduled quizzes and student assessment tests will be conducted in

order to assess student progress. The final examination will comprise of written and practical examinations.

Course Contents:

Manifestation of Disease in the Oral Cavity Diagnosis of the most common disease and condition in the oral cavity Management or treatment of oral disease in the clinic Keratoses and related disorders of oral mucosa Oral epithelial tumours Melanocytic naevi and malignant melanoma Infections of the oral mucosa Oral ulceration and vesiculobullous diseases
