DTC 1 will be a monthly learning activity during the fall and spring semesters of the second year. During this course, dental students will explore advanced dental therapeutic options to address the unique needs of dental patients. Using case-based scenarios, dental students will be challenged to critically research the literature to identify optimal therapeutic solutions. Examples of topics to be addressed include: the patient with dry mouth, the patient with burning mouth disorder, the post-cancer therapy patient, the patient with a prosthetic implant, and the patient with uncontrolled diabetes. During classroom sessions, the course director will facilitate a discussion of the assigned case. Assessment will be accomplished by a quiz over the previous session’s information. Successful completion of DTC 1 will be required to progress to the D3 year.
