The course curriculum is targeted at dentists who wish to establish themselves in elite sports or who are already present in this field and wish to expand their knowledge. It is held:
Procedure:
At the start of the course, participants receive our documentation folder including screening, diagnostic and support material. The knowledge gained during the course of the curriculum can thus be applied and reviewed systematically. Each module is concluded with a written performance review.
During the course, DGzPRsport recommends supporting an ambitious amateur team.
If necessary, it is possible to find a suitable team or sports facility via DGzPRsport’s contacts.
The documentation folder must be brought along as proof for the final exam. The event ends with an oral exam, discussion of experiences and review of the documentation.
Finally, a ceremony is held to award certificates.
The DGzPRsport curriculum is recognized by the IASD (International Association of Sports Dentistry). It enables the holding of the titles “IASD Diplomate Status” and “Team Dentist (IASD)”
