Description

Improve your knowledge with this program where you will find first class clinical cases and materials. Improve the quality of your clinical practice through this postgraduate diploma in Dentofacial Orthopedics”

##IMAGE##

Orthodontics was the first specialty within dentistry and the second after ophthalmology within the health sciences. In this sense, specialty is understood as the possession of a specific professional organization, literature and training. Its specific characteristics in diagnosis, type of treatment, objectives and scientific bases, require exclusive professional practice.

Together with orthodontic therapy, dentofacial orthopedic treatments are applied to optimize results and frequently enhance the rehabilitation of structures and improvement of their function.

The fundamental justification of the program is, therefore, to train professionals with adequate knowledge, skills, attitudes, values and competencies, ensuring they are able to serve society by satisfying its health demands, in terms of prevention, diagnosis and treatment, in an ethical, efficient and safe manner.

This professional must appreciate the need for lifelong professional development and continuing education, be able to efficiently utilize advances in knowledge and technology, and understand the central role of the patient in therapeutic decision making.
