• Module of medical and applied technical sciences:
• Approach to the odontostomatological and periodontal patient.
• Behavioral process and acquisition of general medical and odontostomatological
  medical history data in relation to the procedures and the creation of professional
  and home treatment plans and oral hygiene procedures.
• Extra-oral, intra-oral and dento-periodontal physical examination of the
  patient.
• Studies, evaluation and interpretation of epidemiological indexes and,
  in this case, detection indexes of oral hyphae conditions, inflammation
  detection indexes and P.A.L. and indices of assessment of the need for treatment.
• Periodontal Folder and its compilation.     Periodontal disease: classification and evaluation of disease modifying factors, oral hygiene conditions, local and general factors and implications and correlations with the patient's lifestyle and flawed habits.
• The Periodontal survey: tools used and their handling, probing techniques,
  detection of diagnostic and prognostic parameters and their interpretation.
• Application of care and treatment plans: evaluation phase, treatment phase,
  re-evaluation phase, support phase and maintenance phase.
• Manual non-surgical instrumentation: instrumentation principles: scaling,
  root planing, root debridement.
• Objectives of the Dental Hygienist in non-surgical Periodontal instrumentation.
• Non-surgical periodontal therapy instruments: classification of manual
  instruments, handle, points of intra and extra oral support and fulcrum,
  correct instrumentation movements.
