BMAT 512 Dental Biomaterials I
This course provides the students with developments of dental biomaterials science and the structure and properties of dental materials for clinical use. It provides the foundation for dental biomaterials science including chemical, physical, mechanical and biological properties, as well as clinical applications of restorative and preventive dental materials. This course has two primary objectives. The first objective is the development of an enhanced understanding of the physical and chemical properties of dental biomaterials and the correlation of these materials’ characteristics with the selection of dental biomaterials for clinical use. The second objective of the course is the development of an understanding of how dental biomaterials behave in the clinical setting and which characteristics determine their selection and clinical application.
