Integrated course unit module: ORAL MEDICINE AND DERMATOLOGY

Learning objectives

To provide students preparing for postgraduate training activities with a picture of the principle pathological conditions affecting the oral cavity and the skin with special attention to the etiopathogenesis of the same. Allow elementary and innovative diagnostic techniques to be learned in order to learn the fundamentals of proper protocol .
