Course Outline:

This comprehensive, multidisciplinary course is dedicated to the understanding of the main functions of the nervous system, the principles of sensory and motor functions and to understand pain and its management. Instruction includes training in local anesthesia and nitrous oxide administration. Lecture topics include pain transmission, neurotransmitters, theories of pain perception, and treatment procedures for patients suffering from acute or chronic pain. Consideration is given to the use of drugs, biofeedback, hypnosis, and surgery for treatment of pain.

Course Learning Outcomes:

By the end of this course, student should be able to:
1. Recognize the normal anatomical, histological, biochemical and physiological basis of the nervous system.
2. Define the pathogenesis, pathological, clinical presentation, and managements of the common neurological problems and the impacts on dental science.
3. Memorize leadership responsibilities and ability to work independently and in groups.
4. Analyze the different diagnostic procedures and plans of the neurological problems.
5. Criticize the common basic local dental anesthetic approaches and problems and concepts to their practical counterpart.
6. Operate effectively in order to assess the major neurological problems by using proper medical and electronic technical tools.
7. Perform the basic clinical skills in eliciting neurological examination.
8. Demonstrate the different techniques for local dental/oral anesthesia.
