Oral Biology
The Dentaljuce Oral Biology course will refresh you on the basics of oral biology - development of the oral cavity and the structure of its tissues, and in the Practical Tooth Anatomy section we will take you through the surface anatomy of teeth in the detail necessary to provide superb aesthetic and cosmetically pleasing restorations.
If you're not yet a member of Dentaljuce, we highly recommend you to join and gain access to our comprehensive course on oral biology.
This course, along with over 100 other CPD courses, is available for a single membership payment.
Participant Feedback Review: Oral Biology
Overall Participant Impression
Participants provided highly positive feedback about the "Oral Biology" module, emphasising its clear, comprehensive, and informative content. The course was praised for effectively refreshing essential knowledge, supporting learners in improving patient care through a deeper understanding of oral biology and tooth anatomy.
Key Strengths
Participants particularly valued:
- Clear and straightforward presentation of complex oral biology concepts.
- Detailed coverage of tooth anatomy, histology, and supporting tissues.
- High-quality visual resources, especially histology slides, that enhanced understanding.
- Practical relevance, enabling direct application of knowledge in clinical practice and patient management.
Specific Positive Comments:
- "Great learning experience, worth every minute."
- "Easy to understand, explained everything in simple words."
- "Excellent course with good pictures of histology slides."
- "Very helpful, detailed, and useful description of tooth anatomy and its supporting structures."
- "Best platform to refresh the basics of dentistry."
- "Perfect CPD—very informative and enjoyable course."
- "Very beneficial. This CPD course improved my knowledge."
- "I have learned details about oral tissues such as enamel, dentine, pulp, and cementum."
- "Concise, clear, and highly informative."
Areas for Improvement
Participants suggested minor enhancements, including:
- Improved sequencing and organisation of the presentation to align better with the index.
- Annotating histological slides clearly to enhance visual learning.
- Streamlining some sections to manage the volume of information effectively.
Closed-Question Feedback Summary:
- Met learning objectives: 100% strongly agree/agree
- Good quality: 98% strongly agree/agree
- Useful & relevant: 98% strongly agree/agree
- Engaging: 98% strongly agree/agree, 2% strongly disagree

Aim
The aim of the learning and teaching materials in this Dentaljuce module is to allow learners to develop their professional knowledge and understanding in the field of oral biology, in line with their identified personal learning requirements.
Course objective
- to refresh and update the dental professional's knowledge of oral biology so that their patient management reflects the biological basis of health and disease.
Anticipated learning outcomes:
The learner will, with respect to the components that he or she has elected to study as listed below:- learn how teeth and their supporting tissues develop, at both the macro and the histological level.
- gain excellent knowledge of the anatomy of teeth.
- apply these concepts to the prevention of oral diseases, and the restorative management and treatment of patients with these diseases.
- through achieving these outcomes, provide an improved level of service to their patients.
GDC Development Outcomes
This CPD will support the learner in meeting the following GDC Development Outcome(s): C and D.
