Restorative dentistry is a specialized field of dentistry focused on diagnosing, preventing, and treating oral diseases related to damaged or missing teeth. The course covers various techniques and materials used to restore function, aesthetics, and overall oral health. It integrates principles from prosthodontics, endodontics, and periodontics, ensuring students gain comprehensive knowledge of tooth restoration. 

Students learn about dental materials, cavity preparation, direct and indirect restorations, and advanced procedures such as crowns, bridges, and implants. The course emphasizes the biological, mechanical, and aesthetic considerations necessary for successful restorations. Practical training includes working with dental mannequins and real patients to develop hands-on skills in restorative procedures.

In addition to technical skills, the course explores patient management, treatment planning, and the role of digital technology in modern restorative practices. Research and evidence-based dentistry play a crucial role, ensuring students understand the latest advancements and ethical considerations. 

By the end of the course, students should be proficient in restoring dental function while maintaining the structural integrity and aesthetics of natural teeth. The knowledge gained prepares them for clinical practice, further specialization, or research in the field of restorative dentistry.
