Improve your knowledge with this program where you will find top level clinical cases and materials. Improve the quality of your clinical practice through the postgraduate diploma in Basic Periodontal Surgery and Laser in Periodontics"

Gingival and periodontal diseases are among the most common human diseases. Gingivitis affects approximately 50% of school children, and more than 70% of the adult population has suffered from gingivitis, periodontitis or both. Periodontitis is thought to account for 30 to 35% of all tooth extractions while caries and its sequelae account for as much as 50%.
New techniques in the surgical approach, as well as the introduction of laser as an effective therapy, have improved the response options to periodontal pathologies in a remarkable way.

The knowledge acquired in this program will give the students the ability to face working life from a more qualified position, giving them a clear advantage when it comes to accessing a job, as they will be able to offer the application of the latest technological and scientific advances surrounding the field of periodontics.

The fundamental justification of the program is, therefore, to train professionals with adequate knowledge, skills, attitudes, values and competencies, who are able to serve society by satisfying its health demands, both in terms of prevention, diagnosis and treatment, in an ethical, efficient and safe manner. This professional must appreciate the need for lifelong professional development and continuing education, be able to efficiently utilize advances in knowledge and technology, and understand the central role of the patient in therapeutic decision making.
