The Advanced Master's in Endodontics targets students who want to specialise in Endodontology and deepen their knowledge in the multidisciplinary field of dental care. The Master of Endodontics is logically combined with the part-time Post-graduate Certificate in Endodontics that basically consists of the clinical training.

The Master of Endodontics will provide insight into the specialised techniques and their scientific background in endodontology. Critical scientific reading, understanding of experimental methodologies, statistical analysis and interpretation skills of results constitute the typical profile of a Master of Endodontics.

The academic programme, spread over three years (20 credits per year) involves theoretical courses, selfstudy, preclinics and clinical demonstrations in the field of endodontics. Participation in the clinical and laboratory scientific research programs is also part of the curriculum. The master thesis in the last year makes up 15 of the 20 credits.

A master in endodontics cooperates with the general dentist and other specialists and lends a more specialized service to its patients.
