Welcome to Dental Biomedical Science, we will be learning the basics of the beginning of our new careers. II. Course Catalog Description This course includes the study of anatomy and physiology, which introduces the student to basic structure and function of each system of the body and their contributions to the body as a whole. Emphasis is placed on anatomical structures of the head and neck and their effect on chewing, salivation, circulation, and respiration. A unit on microbiology/oral pathology includes historical contributions to the study of micro-biology, recognition of and growth patterns, and means of destruction. Body defense to inflammation, healing and repair, various types of lesions of the oral cavity, including cancer, and secondary oral disorders is also included. The study of therapeutics includes a brief history of drugs, methods of administration, drug effects, and commonly used drugs in the treatment of oral lesions, anxiety, and pain control. III. Course Overview In this course we will be using skulls and models of muscles to study the structures of the head and neck in relation to dentistry. We will also learn the other functions of the human body in relation to dental IV. Course Rationale: To prepare the student with the understanding of anatomy and physiology of the human body and introduction of therapeutics that forms the foundation of their career as a dental assistant.
