|
 |  | Chemistry preparing to medical and dentistry sciences |

 |
 | The major concepts and principles of chemistry will be discussed and illustrated according to the following framework:
1st semester
- Matter, atom, quantification of energy. - Electronic structure of atoms; ionization. - Covalent bonding and molecular orbitals. - Carbon; intermolecular forces; hybridation of orbitals. - Molecular structure. - Isomerism and chemical reactions. - Chemical equilibrium and pH. - Oxydo-reduction equilibrium. - Thermochemistry. - Chemical thermodynamics. - Chemical kinetics.
2nd semester
- Electronic features of representative reactions of organic chemistry. - Structure and reactivity of the main organic functions, including alkanes, alkenes, halogenated compounds, aromatic hydrocarbons, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, amines and carboxylic acids and derivatives. - Biological importance of the organic functions.
Remedial courses and exercises
- Atomic and molecular structures. - Acid-base reactions (pH). - Oxydo-reduction reactions. - Chemical thermodynamics. - Chemical kinetics. |
 |  | Chemistry of Dental Materials |

 |
 | - Introduction : definitions, choice of dental materials and properties used to characterize them.
-Matter states (alloys and amalgams)
-Solubility of mineral salts (including dental enamel) and influence of the pH and fluorure anion
-General properties of polymers and their more specific use in dentistry. |

| Course objective :
|
 |  | Chemistry preparing to medical and dentistry sciences |

 |
 | The course is organized to give the student an unified view of a science that has a key role in the life world. The principles of general chemistry are taught in strong relation to organic chemistry. The ultimate purpose of the course is to provide the student with a mastery of chemistry such that he/she can understand how molecules of a biological interest are built up and are working. |
 |  | Chemistry of Dental Materials |

 |
 | To demonstrate the importance of the chemical properties of materials used every day in the dental practice in relation with their ultimate fate ( filling materials, inlays, partial or total dentures, restoration materials, etc...) |
| |
|  | | |
| Prerequisites :
|
 |  | Chemistry preparing to medical and dentistry sciences |

 |
 | Basic knowledge taught in the secondary school, including chemical elements (symbol and electronic structure), chemical bonding, matter and quantities (concentration, stoichiometry), acid-base and oxydo-reduction equilibria. These prerequisites are "reactivated" by a one-week cycle of courses introductory to the 1st bac classes in chemistry. Remedial modules (and assistants) are available to students who need help. |
