Teaching & Learning

The method of teaching varies according to programme and individual modules, but is a mixture of lectures, practical, chair side teaching, seminars and directed self-learning, including IT-mediated learning environments.

Audio Video lectures
Due to the Pandemic situation of Covid 19 all over the world and campus closure Mid March the Faculty of Dentistry had to shift to virtual learning starting week six through audio video lectures. All teaching assisting materials were uploaded on the e learning for all modules at the beginning of each week starting week six.
Lectures
These are mainly designed as presentations, providing core knowledge and guidance in subjects being studied. Lectures should develop students’ abilities in understanding and reflection. Audiovisual presentation techniques will be used to supplement their value.
Practical Sessions
Laboratory sessions will be used to reinforce a deeper understanding of topics presented in lectures as well as develop students’ manual skills and dexterity, and their skills in scientific methodology.
Tutorials
These will be related to both preclinical and clinical issues or problems and will rely on discussion and interaction, as well as integration between all clinical disciplines and between basic preclinical sciences and clinical aspects. They will be mainly directed towards developing students’ skills in communication, teamwork, reasoning, and critical thinking.
Seminars
Weekly seminars in specialised clinics are included in the students’ timetable. These are interactive ways of teaching including a variety of presentations, discussion groups, and simulations. They will emphasise and demonstrate the ideas gained and concepts comprehended, and develop communication and problem solving skills.
Personal Development Portfolios
Each student has to prepare a personal portfolio in every module including all theoretical, practical and clinical work performed, as well as any assignments. This will be evaluated and will contribute to the final mark in the module.
Clinical Session
In clinical disciplines to give students adequate experience in handling clinical cases to prepare them for future clinical practice. This will be done in polyclinics under strict supervision by senior members of the staff of relevant departments. Emphasis will be focused on the transfer and continued development of practical clinical skills as well as on the acquisition of professional and ethical attributes appropriate to dental practice.
Guided Independent Study using Communications and Information Technology
These include researches and assignments associated with lectures, laboratory classes, and seminars, and depend on library references given by the lecturers, and on the internet. This represents an effective way of independent learning and will develop students’ study skills, self-reliance, and independence of thought, preparing students for future continued education.
Academic Counselling
This informs students about the rationale, content aims, and objectives of the programme as a whole through open discussions about timetables and activities, especially in the early stages of the module.

The module will actually be a combination of staff providing information through lectures as well as students researching and finding information through assignments and discussing them in seminars and tutorials.

This is actually to meet the needs of our students who are not adequately prepared in their pre-university education to find information for themselves. They will be gradually tutored towards self dependence and self learning as they proceed in the module. Problem solving-based education will be increasingly used as students progress in their clinical training.

The operating room setup allows the Oral and Maxillofacial surgeon to perform all the technically demanding procedures like jaw fracture treatment, correction of facial deformities, removal of jaw tumors with their subsequent reconstruction using bone grafts. It is also equipped with the most advanced power drills, and with an ultrasonic surgical unit for doing the sometimes needed bone grinding.
The operating room facilities also offer the computer guided dental implant planning and placement and the full range of bone buildup procedures before the implant placement if the jaw does not have sufficient bone.In order to improve the level of practice of our students and graduates, all those procedures can be broadcasted to the lecture halls and to all the clinics in the faculty. The interns also practice conscious sedation and help the General anesthesia consultant in all the steps of anesthesia and recovery.
To ensure patient safety a fully equipped recovery unit and ICU are integrated in the operating unit to help in managing patients with health related problems and clinically demanding cases.
The patient rooms are designed to deliver high end postoperative medical service in a comfortable atmosphere. Giving us the chance to care for our patients till the minute they safely leave our hospital.

Prospective Students

How Will I Learn to be Assessed ?
A wide variety of teaching methods are used in the Dental Programme, reflecting the breadth of knowledge and skills you must develop as a dental student. These methods include Lectures, Classes, Tutorials, Practicals and Clinical Placements. Assessment in each year of the programme combines continuous assessment and end-of-year examinations.

In Degree Year 1, Degree Year 2 and Degree Year 3, students’ continuous assessment grade is derived from integrated class examinations at the end of each semester. The end-of-year examination is also integrated, with written and practical elements.
From Degree Year 4, continuous assessment has academic and clinical components. Students will continue to be assessed academically by examinations and their clinical activity will be graded at each clinical session. This helps staff identify students who may require extra support and put such help in place for them. Each year there will be Practical and Oral Exams as well as a Final Written Exam to assess each student.

What career and further education opportunities are open to me when I graduate?
Variety of career pathways are open to new dental graduates. The final career for many graduates is general practice,although a minority may aim to be a consultant in a hospital dental service, a senior clinical academic in a teaching hospital, or a specialist practitioner.
