Learn about the main white and premalignant lesions of the oral cavity and offer better care to your patients"

Dentists are continually working to improve oral health. For this reason, their continuous education, even while they are already working professionally, is fundamental to ensure that their knowledge is constantly updated, which will provide them with extensive specialization and, above all, a better grasp of the latest techniques and tools.

Specifically, this postgraduate certificate will address the classification and differential diagnosis of the different lesions that can become malignant, differentiating between states and lesions. In such cases, the professional’s primary skills are related to early detection, maintenance protocol and monitoring, and additionally, improving their diagnostic ability, clinical skills and acuity in preventing the malignization of a lesion by patient awareness.  

It is vitally important to possess extensive knowledge of these lesions so that the dentist does not harm the patient when performing any intervention, as this could lead to the lesion becoming malignant, and could also carry legal consequences due to negligence and malpractice, and even more seriously, the patient’s health, or even their life, could be compromised. Therefore, the main characteristic to take into account when dealing with premalignant lesions is prevention and conveying accurate information to the patient, who is primarily responsible for avoiding complications, avoiding predisposing factors and following other necessary guidelines to ensure that these lesions remain benign. 

This academic program is characterized by its dynamic methodology that intersperses clinical cases for the student to identify and associate the subject matter explained with its corresponding image, as well as questionnaires to evaluate the student's knowledge and put it to the test, bringing the dentist as close as possible to those situations that will be presented daily in the office to be able to focus and manage them in a coordinated, efficient and planned manner, all mediated by working professionals who will help during the learning process to achieve a complete specialization in all aspects.
