Lockers are also made available for participants to ensure the security and privacy of personal belongings during sports activities.
Within the framework of professional and clinical skills development, a series of specialized training programs are offered. These include training in surgical flap design and suturing techniques, which are considered core competencies in oral surgery. The training focuses on understanding different types of gingival flaps, appropriate surgical design to preserve blood supply and ensure optimal visibility during tooth extraction or implant procedures, as well as the selection and use of surgical sutures, knotting techniques, and suitable surgical needles. Learning outcomes include proper flap design and elevation, application of various suturing techniques, selection of appropriate suture materials, and proficient handling of delicate surgical instruments.
The program also includes training in composite veneers, which represent a conservative and highly esthetic solution for managing minor dental defects such as discoloration, small diastemas, and minor fractures. The training emphasizes modern esthetic dentistry applications using nano-hybrid composite resins, shade selection principles, layering techniques, and replication of the optical properties of natural teeth. Learning outcomes include case selection, surface preparation techniques, multilayer buildup, finishing, and polishing to achieve natural esthetics and stain resistance.
Training in the use of lasers in periodontics is provided, highlighting the significant advancements laser technology has brought to periodontal therapy. The program introduces laser physics and tissue interaction, with emphasis on clinical applications such as pocket disinfection, removal of granulation tissue, and non-surgical periodontal therapy. Learning outcomes include differentiating laser types, applying safe laser protocols, performing soft tissue procedures, and analyzing laser effects on wound healing and postoperative outcomes.
The program further covers rotary endodontics, which represents the modern gold standard in root canal treatment. Training focuses on the use of endodontic motors and nickel-titanium rotary instruments to achieve efficient canal cleaning and shaping, radiographic assessment of canal complexity, and management of previously failed cases. Learning outcomes include motor operation and settings, glide path preparation, effective irrigation techniques, and avoidance of common procedural errors.
In addition, training in cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is offered as a major advancement in three-dimensional dental imaging. Participants are trained to interpret cross-sectional images, identify vital anatomical structures, and apply CBCT in implant planning, assessment of maxillofacial pain, and evaluation of impacted teeth. Learning outcomes include bone density and height assessment, anatomical measurements, integration with surgical planning software, and identification of three-dimensional pathologies.
The program also includes training in the basics of dental photography, which is an essential tool for documentation, diagnosis, and treatment planning. The training focuses on intraoral and extraoral photography, DSLR camera settings, standardized photographic protocols, and proper use of accessories. Learning outcomes include producing high-quality clinical images, documenting cases before and after treatment, and organizing digital archives in compliance with patient confidentiality standards.
