Tematika

The aim of the lectures is to acquire the knowledge of the anatomy and function of chewing apparatus. Students learn the types and use of articulators.

The aim of the practices is to learn the occlusal anatomy of the teeth, and to wax up the occlusal surfaces of premolar and molar teeth according to the technology of HC Lundeen in order the better understanding the occlusion and articulation movements. Students learn the types and use of articulators and face-bow.

A félév elfogadásának feltételei

During the lectures and practices active participation is expected as it is written in the Code ofStudies and Examinations (CSE).

The two mid-term written exams will be held during the lecture times.

If a student fails to attend the mid-term exams, the exam will be graded as unsatisfactory (1) .

In case both mid-term exams are graded as unsatisfactory (1), there is an opportunity for asecond attempt. If both mid-term exams are graded as unsatisfactory (1), the student'ssemester will not be accepted, and they will not be able to take the final exam for the subject.

The results of both mid-term tests are taken into account when determining the final grade (Mid-term test 25-25%, exam mark 50%).
