Requirements:


This course consists of 14 modules designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of implant dentistry and related technologies. Students will progress through each module by completing tests, practical assignments, and written tasks. Each module contains a 10-question test that must be completed to progress to the next module. If a student does not pass a test, they are allowed to retake it up to two times. The final grade for the course will be calculated based on the weighted average of the final exam (40%) and the final assignment (60%).
