In the laboratory sessions the histopathological appearances of the most significant lesions are used as an aid in understanding the biological aspects of oral disease. The seminar periods are used to integrate knowledge of the pathology with oral medicine and to impart a system of diagnosis and treatment based on the understanding of disease. Course Outcomes: By the end of this course, student should be able to: 1. Identify the chief complaint of the patient and obtain a history of the present illness. 2.
