The aim of this course is to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of the normal physiology of the muscular, cardiovascular, respiratory, nervous, renal, gastrointestinal, endocrine, and reproductive systems. The course enables students to explain the physiological mechanisms responsible for maintaining homeostasis and to integrate basic physiological principles into preclinical and clinical dental education.
Physiological principles of the muscular, cardiovascular, respiratory, nervous, renal, gastrointestinal, endocrine, and reproductive systems; regulation of homeostasis; interactions among body systems; and the relevance of these physiological mechanisms to oral and dental health.
