Program Description:
Considering the ever-increasing rate of progress in science and information explosion all over the world and in Iran and almost 35 years after the establishment of specialty courses in dentistry in Iran, it seems it is absolutely necessary to revise the curricula of these courses.
In this context, based on the guidelines of the Council for General and Specialty Dental Courses, special committees for programming of education in the field of dentistry were made responsible to revise the curricula of specialty courses. The committees consisted of the examining board members, evaluation group members, executive managers and specialty association members and some young experts. Each committee asked for opinions of expert graduates and current post-graduate students, and evaluated the contents of educational programs in different countries to prepare a new curriculum for the specialty course and submitted it to the Higher Commission for Dental Education Programming. Under the auspices of God, the Almighty, the committees responsible for revising the curriculum for Restorative Dentistry specialty course have prepared a new curriculum for this course, which will be implemented after the approval of the Council for General and Specialty Dental Courses.
