1. MarcinParadowskiThe impact on patient care of completing
apostgraduate degree course.
2. Initially I would like to present how so far mypost graduate
education has improved servicedelivery for patients.
3. Following my MSc in Endodontics all of myroot canal
treatments are carried out usingmicroscope magnification.- great
knowledge- ability to treatdifficult cases- improved quality
ofclinical work- no referrals andtraveling for patients- teaching
andtraining youngdentists

16. These pictures are a sample of my workand show evidence of
improved quality ofcare for my patientsI am a great supporter of
evidence baseddentistry and I hope to increase myknowledge during
my studying but also tobe involved in the creation of
futureevidence to move dentistry forward.
17. MSc In restorativedentistry in rural area There are about
15% more elderly people living in rural areas.(census2011) patients
have to travel long distance for specialist treatment people are
living longer older patients retain their own teeth for longer
older patients are more educated and expecting more of
restorativework , prefer to keep their own teeth over dentures
there is also quite a high rate of caries with older population,
patients present with severe tooth abrasion. Also older patients
are presenting with more complex medicalhistories , this can
infuence treatment options and more treatmentmore complex and
difficult. ref . for all above ( Int Dent J.
2007Dec;57(6):423-8.)
18. ResearchproposalI would like to research how work with
magnificationcan improve the quality of restorations.I think it
best would be to check micro-leakage ofrestorations done with and
without magnification onextracted teeth.
19. The impact on patient care ofcompleting a
postgraduatecourse. Increased knowledge and better patientcare
improved confidence, attitudes andskills minimized number of
referrals Better understanding of research andevidence based
dentistry creation of new evidence opportunity to teach young
dentistsand colleagues .
20. Therefore, I think that there is agreat need for highly
educatedclinicians in restorative dentistry tobe able to treat
patients withgreater care and a widerknowledge of evidence
baseddentistry. Clinicians that will beable to train recently
qualifieddentists , pass knowledge andinfluence others. By doing
this theimpact of the MSc course isgreater and goes a lot wider,
goingbeyond treating my own patients.
