This course will be held once a week during the first semester of the graduate program’s second year.  It consists of weekly seminars dedicated to reviewing classical and contemporary literature in the field of endodontic.  Selected articles covering topics in diagnosis, procedure, and treatment used in endodontics will be appraised and synthesized.  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 diagnostics, techniques and procedures, management, and failures/complications in the clinical practice of non-surgical and surgical endodontic therapy.
