This course provides education for students to become professional dental technologists with the ability to apply newly developed materials and technologies to clinical dentistry and contribute not only to community dental medicine but also to dental research or educational institution internationally. At present, the latest technologies such as dental implant, dental CAD/DAM, etc are becoming more popular because of the progress of dental materials and technologies. Therefore, it is important to learn about new materials and technologies, and acquire skills in order to perform laboratory works properly. Communication skills are important because giving the information about materials and technologies to dentists and dental hygienists is necessary for the best outcome of dental treatment. Goal of this course is to produce dental technicians with extensive knowledge, high skill, and communication ability.

There are working on research of clinical dental technology as to place dental material science of the based on oral health engineering at the canter in this section. Therefore, newly developed materials were evaluated from a technologist’s point of view and aimed to establish a study. It promotes research of technical information with approaches from both dental material sciences and dental lab works, and returns the profits to society.

The purpose of this section is to educate professional dental technologists who has ability to apply newly developed materials and technologies and who is able to contribute in not only clinical situation but also research institution or educational organization at international levels. Presently, the latest technologies such as dental implant and dental CAD/CAM etc became popular by the development of materials and the progress in technologies among dental treatment. Therefore, it is necessary to understand and lean knowledge about newly developed materials and technologies for properly control the dental laboratory works. Furthermore, It is necessary that the communication skill for report information about the materials and technologies to dentists and dental hygienists. Based on these evidences, it is an education in which specialists are raised to not be bound by classification as technologist and have ambition.
