Learning outcomes
  1. Comprehends the factors affecting the outcome according to the treatment technique. It foresees, plans, decides and implements technical developments in which process of treatment can be used as an additional method. Describes the effectiveness of the treatment's plastic reconstructive and aesthetic surgery approaches related to mental health in the patient's living environment.
  2. Improves the treatment strategy by making evaluations that will affect the functional capacity in Craniomaxillofacial Surgery. Selects, plans and applies craniomaxillofacial surgery techniques specifically to problems.
