A unique, key and decisive training experience to boost your professional development"
Postgraduate Diploma in Endodontics and Periodontics
Since 1963, the American Dental Association recognized root canal treatment or endodontics as a specialty within the dental field. It was, of course, not a fortuitous decision, the procedure itself requires a rather fine, detailed and concise expertise to achieve a successful outcome. Periodontics, on the other hand, requires certain specific knowledge to diagnose and surgically treat periodontal pathologies that can occur even due to poor dental occlusion. Thinking of bringing together both disciplinary branches and compiling their fundamentals, concepts and practices in a single material that instructs in a unique way, TECH Global University has developed its Postgraduate Diploma in Endodontics and Periodontics: a 100% online methodology course that will give the common dentist the curricular status they need to develop with reliability and skill in areas that represent a real challenge. We are sure that the road to excellence is not only reached with the basics of an academic career, in TECH we specialize in training staff that is above average standards. Do you want to reach the highest possible level in the performance of your work? Study with us and notice the difference.
Discover the new paradigms of advanced dentistry
Times are evolving by leaps and bounds. It is known that during the year 700 B.C. the Etruscans came to use pieces of ivory and seashells to make dental implants. Today, technological advances allow the oral health doctor to perform interventions in a much more comfortable and versatile way. Implantology, for example, has allowed advances in periodontal studies, as well as bone regeneration and guided tissue regeneration treatments. Do you have sufficient skills to safely perform these procedures? Our postgraduate course provides you with the theoretical and practical tools to achieve it, as well as in the work of endodontists, whose field lacks skilled personnel due to the degree of difficulty that requires an intervention of this type; you must know how to perform diagnosis, anesthesia, preparation, opening, conductimetry, obturation and control. In the Postgraduate Diploma that we offer you, you will be able to be proficient in these competencies with all the ease and flexibility that our unparalleled online education system allows.
