5440. Biodontics: Integrating Biotechnology with Clinical Dentistry

3.00 credits

Prerequisites: Open only to current UConn Health Dental Residents in the combined Certificate/Master of Dental Science Program.

Grading Basis: Graded

The goal of the Biodontics educational program is to explore the process of introduction of biotechnology based innovations into clinical dentistry. The course will focus on a variety of innovations, including those considered "disruptive", and explore the laboratory and clinical studies underlying their translation from the bench to chairside. The course will also consider the process of "diffusion" of innovations into dental practice and examine the barriers to acceptance by dental office personnel. Students, working in teams, will be required to present a business plan for the development and marketing of a new dental product.
