Periodontology

Periodontology is a specialized branch of dentistry focused on the study and treatment of the supporting structures of teeth and related diseases. Coursera's Periodontology catalogue teaches you about the anatomy and function of the periodontium, including the gingiva, alveolar bone, cementum, and periodontal ligament. You'll learn to diagnose and treat various periodontal diseases, perform surgical and non-surgical interventions, and implement effective prevention strategies for maintaining oral health. Mastering periodontology equips dental professionals with the expertise to prevent tooth loss, manage gum diseases, and improve patients' overall oral health and quality of life.
