This unit studies the processes of examination, diagnosis, planning and treatment of patients in respect to periodontal disease. The interlinkage of periodontics with all other dental disciplines is established especially in the field of treatment planning.<br/><br/>The unit comprises two distinct but inseparable parts: periodontology—the study of the periodontal tissues and their diseases; and periodontics—the application of periodontology to the clinical treatment and management of periodontal conditions and the interrelation with other clinical disciplines. -- Course Website
