understanding of the structural and physiological changes underlying disease processes. The major components of this course are microscopic anatomy, dental histology, and general pathology. The initial component of the course deals with basic cellular histology and pathological processes. The major part of the course is presented in an organ-system approach. For each system, the normal histology followed by the major pathological processes is presented. The aim is to introduce dental students to diseases as manifestations of disordered function and to begin thinking in terms of the pathophysiologic basis of disease. In relevant areas, the impact of disease processes on the management of a dental patient is presented. The course provides the necessary instructions that enhance students' performances on examinations and the platform for life-long learning. The course is offered during the second (spring) semester of the D1 year. (8 credit hours)
