The drive for development of new and novel oral biomaterials has never been more important with many people using oral biomaterials today and seeing their benefits in restoring and improving their oral health for a more enjoyable lifestyle. The unique properties of biomaterials such as titanium (Ti), zirconia (ZrO2) and various polymeric materials have made them materials of choice in oral health: dental implants, oral and maxillofacial surgery, and even regenerative medicine. Oral biomaterials research today is an exciting and intensive multidisciplinary area that encompasses contributions from a wide range of fields from professional dentistry to biology, chemistry, physics, material science, and engineering.

Revisiones
Principales revisiones sobre MATERIALS IN ORAL HEALTH
por SP12 de may. de 2020
It was a great experience to be the part of this course as it gave me such a great knowledge about the materials used in dental field and lectures were also great to the point.
por SV22 de jun. de 2019
The course was really effective with quizzes and the lecture videos were really amazing and overall had a good learning experience
por SJ18 de may. de 2017
I felt it could be more clinically oriented and subjects could be more elaborate. More demonstrations can also be made
por AA22 de may. de 2018
It was really interesting. Thanks HKU and Coursera. I won the best learner's essay for the 1st session of the course.
Preguntas Frecuentes
¿Cuándo podré acceder a las lecciones y tareas?
Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
- The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
- The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
¿Qué recibiré si compro el Certificado?
Cuando compras un Certificado, obtienes acceso a todos los materiales del curso, incluidas las tareas calificadas. Una vez que completes el curso, se añadirá tu Certificado electrónico a la página Logros. Desde allí, puedes imprimir tu Certificado o añadirlo a tu perfil de LinkedIn. Si solo quieres leer y visualizar el contenido del curso, puedes participar del curso como oyente sin costo.
¿Cuál es la política de reembolsos?
Puedes solicitar un reembolso completo hasta dos semanas después de tu fecha de pago o (para los cursos que se lanzaron recientemente) hasta dos semanas después del comienzo de la primera sesión del curso, lo que ocurra después. No puedes recibir un reembolso luego de obtener un Certificado de curso, aun cuando completes el curso dentro del período de reembolso de dos semanas. Consulta nuestra política de reembolsos completa.
¿Hay ayuda económica disponible?

What is the aim of the course?
The major aim of the course is to help the students:
LEARN about important biomaterials used in oral health and their unique properties and use, UNDERSTAND the selection and clinical implications and potentials of biomaterials and technology used in dentistry, and APPLY the related knowledge, experience, challenges, and expertise in studies and research in oral biomaterials and CREATE SYNERGY in ever growing needs and contribution to tomorrow’s dentistry.
What are the contents covered in the course?
The MOOC includes 4 modules and runs over a period of 4 weeks.
You can refer to the Learning objectives page.
Week 1 reveals the unique properties and clinical implications of the much sort-after titanium and various ceramics and discusses the importance of surface treatments and modifications.
Week 2 discusses the characteristics of modern resin composites, other polymeric materials, and dental cements, looking into adhesion strength and the role of dentin bonding agents.
Week 3 explores present day and future dentistry: the increasingly popular role of digital dentistry in practice today, including CAD/CAM, crown fabrication, 3D printing and orthodontics.
Week 4 shows major research laboratory tests for testing specific mechanical properties, adhesion strength, as well as, spectroscopic techniques used in the analysis and charaacterization of biomaterials.
What is the structure of a weekly module?
Each Weekly Module is divided into 3 to 4 Lessons, depending on the content area and topics. Each Module includes Learning Objectives, Further Reading materials for the week and Discussion Prompt questions in the discussion forum.
Each individual Lesson in the Weekly Module contains 3 to 4 video lecture videos and an automated assessment of Multiple Choice questions for knowledge consolidation.
How can I get a course certificate and what is it?
You can earn official recognition for the course you take on Coursera with a Course Certificate for completing and passing course assignments and meeting the assessment standards. Please refer to details on: https://learner.coursera.help/hc/en-us/articles/208280196
Can I re-take the quiz if I did not get all questions correct?
The purpose of the quiz is to help you comprehend the lesson contents. A learner can make 3 attempts to a quiz within 1 hour.
