This course is the first of three in the Endodontics seminar series. This course will be held once a week during the second semester of the graduate program’s first year. It consists of weekly seminars dedicated to reviewing classical and contemporary literature in the field of endodontic. A series of seminars in endodontics based on comprehensive readings and reviewing in the literature/textbooks are designed to provide an in-depth level of knowledge in contemporary endodontic treatment modalities that are developing at a pace, which is not presented in the current endodontic literature. The interrelationship between basic sciences and clinical aspects of endodontics is emphasized.

The students learn to critically evaluate the scientific evidence that supports endodontic principles and practice. By the end of this course, students will have gained an in-depth knowledge essential for techniques and procedures in the clinical practice of non-surgical therapy involving steps from root canal access to root canal obturation.
