The Restorative Dentistry PhD program is designed for dentists who wish to receive advanced training in the field of dentistry. This program aims to provide in-depth knowledge and expertise in restorative dentistry, in addition to the fundamental knowledge and skills in dentistry. Within the program, theoretical and practical education is provided on the treatment of problems such as decay, fracture, abrasion, erosion, attrition, and abfraction in teeth, as well as the diagnosis and treatment of anomalies and pathologies in dental hard tissues. Topics such as modern restorative dental treatment techniques, materials, and digital technologies are also included in the program. Another focus of the program is to meet patients' aesthetic, phonetic, and functional needs using adhesive dentistry and CAD/CAM materials. Problems with the alignment, shape, and position of teeth, closure of diastemas (gaps between teeth), and smile design can be treated with composite or porcelain laminate veneers. Additionally, the restoration of endodontically treated teeth can be done using CAD/CAM materials. Physiological and pathological tooth discolorations are primarily addressed with conservative treatments such as tooth whitening. Protective approaches including fluoride application are also included in the program to minimize the risk of decay and prevent enamel loss. Thesis work is also an important part of the program to enhance research and academic writing skills. Graduates of this doctoral program will have specialized in restorative dentistry and will have the opportunity to continue their academic career or advance in clinical practice.
