Clinical Periodontics VI

The Periodontics clinic provides the fourth year students with the opportunity to treat patients with differences of severity in existing periodontal disease. In most cases, the patients afford the students with adequate experiences and impart to them comprehensive knowledge of the tissues of the periodontium and the fundamental principles underlying the prevention and treatment of diseases that affect the periodontal tissues. Periodontal therapy is an integral part of every patient's treatment at Penn Dental Medicine. Periodontal treatment is carried out in predoctoral and postdoctoral clinics. 0.25-0.75 Credit Hours
