Course-Program Learning Outcome Relationship

Learning Outcomes
Program Outcomes
1) To be able to diagnose, identify and classify dental and skeletal anomalies. To gain theoretical and practical knowledge about orthodontic treatment methods. To be able to perform and interpret the cephalometric analyzes and soft tissue analyzes required for diagnosis and treatment prediction on one's own. To be able to make appropriate treatment plans for the diagnosed cases.
2) To have the knowledge and clinical experience to treat orthodontic cases with contemporary removable and fixed orthodontic treatment methods. To be able to make orthognathic surgery planning and surgical preparations for patients with severe skeletal deformity, to work in coordination with the surgeons who will perform the surgery. To be able to take part in interdisciplinary working groups that coordinate the treatment of patients with cleft lip and palate, to be equipped to respond to all orthodontic needs of these patients from infancy to adulthood. To gain knowledge and experience about differential diagnosis of temporomandibular joint pathologies and treatments for them. To be able to reach the necessary resources by scanning the literature, to plan laboratory or clinical experiments using the technical and theoretical knowledge and skills gained, to take part in a thesis or a project under the supervision of a supervisor.
