TRANSCRIPT
When we are talking about the academic environment from Iasi,
we cannot omit one of the oldest institutions of medical education from
Romania, which is University of Medicine and Pharmacy “Gr.T.Popa” Iasi.
What could attract a student to come and mount the stairs of this university?
First it is the tradition, because a university, in order to make
performance, must have strong roots. University of Medicine and
Pharmacy “Gr.T.Popa” Iasi trained many from the founders of the
Romanian medicine, and their spirit still lead this institution’s destiny.
Secondly there are the specializations offered. By its strategy, our university develops curricula with European dimensions, and the certificates obtained in this university are recognized
in all the European Union countries, as well as in many countries outside EU.
Finally it is the humanistic and human coordinates of our university, the hospitality, the
Moldavian kindness, which give a human dimension to the exigency, competence and performance.
I think these are the argument through which our university attract its students and our absolvents remain attached by the institution that trained them.

GRADUATE STUDIES
GENERAL PRESENTATION:
The Dental Medicine Faculty Iasi is an academical institution structured and organized in
accordance with modern principles, at the same time being one of the most prestigious faculties of
medical profile in the country – at a regional, national and even international level. The history of
this faculty has been influenced by numerous personalities of the Romanian medicine. Many of its
graduates are representing at present important names for the Romanian and international
Stomatology. Its honorable past and the dynamic and modern present constitute the premises for a
bright future.
The Dental Medicine Faculty of Iasi was created in 1945 as a department of the Medicine
Faculty under the guidance of Prof. Dr. Nicolae Dutescu, being at that time the first faculty of this
profile from the country. Since 1965 it functions as an independent faculty with 6-years full-time
courses. After 1989 and especially since 1992 our faculty has been going through a continuous
developing process, increasing the number of the staff and of the students and modernizing the
specialized clinics endowing them with a modern material basis in accordance with the exigencies
of the third millennium.
The European integration of the Faculty of Dental Medicine, Iasi, is reflected by its
CIDCDF accreditation (The International Confederation of Deans of Total or Partial French
Expression) – the evaluation being made in September 2008 with positive results. Equally, the
Faculty of Dental Medicine was evaluated in 2001 by ADEE (The European Dental Association for
Education), gaining with this occasion the international recognition of its values and achievements.
Our Dean, Prof. Univ. Dr. Norina Forna, is ADEE Ambassador for Romania and member in the

DEPARTMENTS AND DISCIPLINES STRUCTURE
The basic entity of the educational activity is the DISCIPLINE, the fundamental structure
of the modern stomatological education system. Each discipline has its own Curricula of lectures
and practical courses, organizes its own examination forms and carries on its research activity. The
disciplines of similar profiles are organized in DEPARTMENTS.
There are three departments in our faculty, which contain the stomatological disciplines: 1. THE SURGICAL DEPARTMENT (DENTO-ALVEOLAR, ORAL
AND MAXILLO-FACIAL SURGERY)
DEPARTMENT CHIEF –
Conf. dr. Irina Zetu
- Dento-alveolar surgery, Anesthesiology in dental medicine,
Oral medicine - Oral and maxilla-facial surgery
- Bases of physics and biophysics in dental medicine
- General and oro-maxillo-facial pathology
- The oral cavity chemistry and biochemistry
- Oro-dental prevention
- Communitarian stomatology
- Oral dermatology
- General and dental radiology
- Pedodontics
- Orthodontics and dento-facial orthopedics
2. THE ODONTOLOGY – PERIODONTOLOGY AND FIXED
PROSTHESIS DEPARTMENT DEPARTMENT CHIEF –
Prof. dr. Gabriela Ifteni - Cariology
- Endodontics
- Periodontology
- Fixed prosthesis. Gnathology. Dental esthetics
3. THE IMPLANTOLOGY, REMOVABLE PROSTHESIS AND
TECHNOLOGY DEPARTMENT
DEPARTMENT CHIEF –
Prof. dr. Monica Tatarciuc
- Partially removable prosthesis and implanto-prosthetic
rehabilitation
- Total prosthesis
- Technology of dental prosthesis
- Dental materials
- Oro-dental diagnosis. Gerontostomatology
- Ergonomics
- Psycho-motor and logopaedic recovery
- Balneary physiotherapy and oral functional recovery
- Oro-dental public health and dentistry management
In addition to these there are
also the pre-clinical and medico-surgical
disciplines, which assure the basic
preparation of our students (especially
during the small years) through
specialized academic staff. These
disciplines where traditionally included in
the chairs of Dental Medicine Faculty.
Since 2008, as a consequence of a
restructuration process achieved in our
University in order to fulfill the European
criteria, these disciplines were unified
with the equivalent disciplines of the
other faculties in order to make unique
disciplines and departments in the
University. This is the case of the
following disciplines, included now in
unique structures coordinated by the
Faculty of Medicine:
Course coordinator - Anatomy and clinical anatomy Conf. dr. Puişoru Mihaela
- Anatomy - Embryology Conf. dr. Indrei Anca
- Histology Prof. dr. Căruntu Draga - Irina
- Pathological anatomy S.l. dr. Rădulescu Luminiţa

- Physical education Asist. dr. Anton Prisacariu Bogdan - Informatics and medical biostatistics S.l. dr. Dascălu Cristina Gena
- Modern languages Prof. dr. Flaişer Mariana
ACADEMIC CURRICULA:
Before 1990 the academic curricula had a very simple structure being made of just four
basic stomatological disciplines: Odontology-Periodontology, Prosthetics, Maxillo-Facial Surgery
and Orthodontics.
The most important and radical curricular re-organization of the
Romanian educational system for Dental Medicine was initiated in 1992 and
put into practice for the first time at the Dental Medicine Faculty of Iasi.
Consequently, the implementation of the most modern curricular structure also
used in European universities succeeded in Iasi. However this achievement
would not have been possible without maintaining close relations of co-
operation with the most prestigious institutions of similar profile from Europe.
The Academic Curricula has the following main characteristics:
The dental medicine education is modern
and integrated, the achieved knowledge
being evaluated through Transferable
credits, in a similar way with the
transferable credits system used in the
EU;
Ensuring an adequate training in the
Fundamental Biological Sciences field;
The students’ training in the field of the
basic General Medicine Disciplines is also
provided with the purpose of offering them
the necessary knowledge of general
pathology;
The proper ratio LECTURES/PRACTICAL
COURSES is observed;
Specialized training is carried out through
the agency of different modern
stomatological disciplines;
Special attention is paid to the Communitarian and Preventive Dental Medicine disciplines;
Within the framework of the restorative disciplines the oral and functional rehabilitation is
stressed;
The students’ training is carried out through the Simulation method with the purpose of
developing their practical abilities;
In the sixth year of study there has been implemented an integrated lectures and training
system – Oral Rehabilitation and other.

67%
The disciplines are grouped in 2 categories, each
of them having a well established proportion in
the general plan of student education:
62% stomatological disciplines;
38% medical, surgical and fundamental
disciplines.
We have diversified the main directions of the Romanian Dental
Medicine educational system introducing for the first time new disciplines in
the Curriculum like for example: Stomatological Ergonomics, Biomaterials,
Bioequipments, Gnathology, Implantology, Communitarian Stomatology,
Management, Dental Esthetics.
An important objective of the didactic process is represented by the modification of the
names and the curricula of the disciplines in accordance with the West-European educational
system. This way, if 10 years ago there were 10 disciplines, in 2003 we have reached a number of
51 disciplines as a result of the introduction, for the first time in Romania, of several new
disciplines in accordance with the European standards – and this reorganization activity continues,
having as main objectives the permanent remodeling and adaptation.
ADVANTAGES:
A complex Curricula, integrated,
modular, oriented towards the
students’ needs;
The continuity of the educational and
evaluation process;
The permanent adaptation using the
positive feed-back from the students
part;
The teaching is carried out with small
groups of students which allows a
better training of each student and
also a better supervision;
Providing the premises for the
continuous education;
The Socratic approach of the teaching
and educating process (the student
must find out for himself the correct
answers to the question problems he
is asked by directing him through well
chosen additional questions);
Realistic self-assessment.

ADMISSION – CANDIDATES SELECTION
PROCEDURE:
Any person who has graduated high-school and obtained a Graduating Diploma can be
admitted to our faculty. The Romanian high-school graduates are admitted to the Dental Medicine
Faculty of Iasi after a competitive written examination consisting of a written thesis in Biology OR
Organic Chemistry (the same for all specializations – long-term 6-years studies or short-term 3-
years studies). The written theoretical examination is of grid-test type and consists of multiple-
choice questions and the admission examination takes place in the course of July.
The average mark of the four high-school years and the average mark
obtained at the graduation examination are also taken into account in the
calculation of the final average mark for the admission examination.
The admission of the foreign candidates takes place after the admission examination for
the Romanian candidates.
DURATION OF THE STUDIES:
Undergraduate studies: 6 years
Postgraduate studies:
Masters Degree: 1 – 1,5 years (2 or 3 semesters)
Doctoral Studies: 4 years (Doctoral School)
Residency, depending on specialty: 2 - 5 years
Competences: 1 year
Postgraduate specialization: 1 – 6 weeks
EXAMINATION FORMS:
The modular educational system implies the division of the educational process into
modules corresponding to each discipline.
On the whole, throughout the studies period, the
student gathers a number of 360 transferable credits, 60 credits for
each year of study. Promoting from one study-year to another is
permitted only if the exams which were not passed sum up a total
of 15 credits at the most.
The number of credits granted to each discipline may
vary from one academic year to another depending on the
modifications of the analytic schedule, on the importance of the
discipline for the educational process and on the time needed for
the competent knowledge to be stored in an adequate manner.
This kind of system eliminates the
notion of equalization and allows the
conclusion of collaboration agreements
between our faculty and other Dental Medicine
faculties of the country (Bucharest, Timisoara,
Cluj-Napoca, Târgu-Mureş, Craiova,
Constanţa, Oradea).
The exams are meant to confirm the carrying out of the aims and objectives for each course.
Examination forms:
projects, written, oral or practical exams
graduation exam and defence of the diploma paper
The practical exam assesses the practical abilities of the
students and their manual dexterity using:
- The clinical case presentation;
- The student is asked to carry out a technical
procedure, to execute a clinical activity or to make an
interpretation of data.
The valuation of the theoretical knowledge is carried
out through a written paper formulated in one of the
following manners:
- two or three questions of the short essay type;
- ten questions with a short answer;
- MCQ tests in various variants.
In our University we are using more and more the MCQ tests (multiple choice questions) at
the theoretical exam, which takes place simultaneously with all the students within the same year
of study. This sort of examination is totally objective, because the papers are scanned and verified
using the computer, and it is used for all the pre-clinical disciplines in the 1st and 2nd year of study
and for 2 clinical disciplines in the superior years of study.
The compensation between the written paper and the clinical exam is not allowed.
The students are evaluated with
marks between 1 and 10, the
minimal mark for passing being 5.
1 – no answer;
2 – very weak answer;
4 – under satisfying;
5 – over the passing limit;
6 – satisfying;
8 – good answer;
10 – excellent and complete
answer.
All the methods of valuation we use have been chosen in order to allow the students to
obtain a realistic feed-back regarding the educational process, so that they would be able to
discover their deficiencies and to find the most adequate methods to correct them.
Since 2009, within our Faculty we opened Study Programs in English and French, where
students from the entire world can apply.
After finishing the two study-cycles the student is evaluated by the License/Graduation Exam in order to obtain the Doctor in Medicine title (MD).
The Graduation Exam consists in 3 stages: - Theoretical exam - grid test; - Practical exam;
- Diploma Paper.
The DIPLOMA obtained after graduating
from the Dental Medicine Faculty of Iasi is
acknowledged by the Romanian Ministry of
Education as well as by the specialized instances
of other countries: member states of the EU, USA,
Canada (since 2007), Egypt, United Emirates of
Arabia, Germany, Greece, India, Jordan, Iraq,
Iran, Israel, Kuwait, Libanon, Marocco, Oman,
Qatar, Syria, Sudan, Sweden, Tunis, Turkey and
Yemen.

MEDICAL ASSISTANCE – MATERIAL
BASIS
MEDICAL ASSISTANCE:
The entire period of practical training of the students is
carried out in the Dental Clinics, in which the members of the
academic staff offer dental services to population. After a very
detailed assessment, if students have proved both excellent
theoretical knowledge and manual dexterity necessary for certain
specific dental procedures, they may have their own patients.
During the practical training, students are required to
gather documentary evidence from the specialized literature on
different specific issues, to make their own opinions as regards these issues and to back them up
with pertinent evidence. This work method is very important in the clinical activity, in which
establishing the plan of treatment must be underlain on a well-documented scientific basis.
This working method is very important in the clinic activity, because the treatment plan
establishing must be based on a well-documented scientific background.
An important aspect within oral health programs represents prevention. In this sense, at
the level of different clinical specialties within our faculty there are frequently organized programs
of popularizing oral hygiene regulations and dental prevention in schools, kindergartens, hostels,
etc. Within these programs, students perform an active role during the practical training.
The programs of practical training, both clinical and didactic, are being constantly
modified in order to meet the continuously changing community needs. The students practical
training is permanently achieved in the framework defined by the physician / nurse / dental
technician triplet; in this way the students can understand better the global image of what means
the profession of “stomatologist” – aspects systematically found in the curricular program.
CLINICAL FACILITIES:
The Faculty of Dental Medicine from Iaşi
holds its activity in a few main locations. The most
important one is the new Dental Medicine
Education Base, situated on the M. Kogalniceanu
Street, no. 9, in the very neighborhood of the
Bioengineering Faculty location.
This location joins all the clinic and
technologic disciplines into the same building,
showing the interdisciplinary character of these
specialties and covering all the requirements of the
graduate, as well as the postgraduate studies –
organizational concept entirely original at national
level.
THE NEW BASE FOR MEDICAL EDUCATION FOR THE STUDENTS OF DENTAL
MEDICINE FACULTY is a location that can be compared with any other similar space of the
European universities.
This is the first Romanian model of educational base, achieved according to a project
based on a entirely original idea, which respects the highest European exigencies. The space
is designed and compartmented in such a way so the patients circuit takes place according to
the European Union standards, stimulating the practical – integrative character (clinic,
technologic, didactic and for research), in the permanent presence of physician / nurse /
dental technician triplet.
The building is new, being officially open in May 2007, and offers the necessary
infrastructure of a competitive education, at the highest standards and a rigorous medical
assistance – materialized through the contract with the Health Assurance House, which refers to
all the physicians / teaching staff which work in this institution. Its main objective is to assure to
our students the approach of a comprehensive therapeutic algorithm, correlated with simulated
and clinical aspects and not eluding the modern technologies – essential directions for a high
quality medical act, according with the European requirements.
The endowment of the Medical Education Base at European level, and the implementing, in
national premiere, of a clinic information system with multiple facilities – recording the patients
clinic data in intranet system, images processing and storage and free access to Internet –
contributes to create a valuable informational database and to develop a prestigious medical
activities.
The modern methods for data transmission, based on video and audio connections
between the spaces allocated for patients treatment and the faculties amphitheaters and
materialized into a television system with closed circuit, help our teachers to explain easier and
better the theoretical notions, gaining extra time for the students practice. These elements also
create the proper environment to set up clinic demonstrations of high performance,
videoconferences and telemedicine projects, assuring the bidirectional connection between the
consulting room where the stomatological procedures take place and amphitheaters. This method
of education for students, as well as graduates (during the postgraduate lectures), based on video
transmission in real time, in detail and fully interactive in the whole faculty, much superior to the
inert power-point course presentations and engaging directly the auditorium in the interventions
made by the team of dental physicians – not only by simply viewing and observing, but also by
asking questions and adding comments, is unique in our country and superior even to the
endowments present in some famous faculties in Europe.
The presence of the two simulation units, as well as the three consulting rooms, for
implanto-prosthetic rehabilitation, dento-alveolar surgery and dento-periodontal surgery are
also strong arguments for the high quality education, according to the European standards, which
takes place in this location.
The three laboratories dedicated for the Diploma Paper preparation complete the
existent infrastructure.
Because nowadays the clinic success is highly correlated with the performances of the
biomaterials used and the technological methods, the laboratories offer the possibility to use new
materials for prosthesis achievement, the substance loss being solved by applying epithesis.
Between the modern paraclinic non-invasive methods, we give a special prevalence to
the CRT (Computer - Reglatory Thermography), which draws the main coordinates of the
pathology-oriented specific exams and defines the epidemiological model of the clinical cases,
useful in the future scientific research. Previously used in medical imagery, for the early detection
of breast cancer, this method is successfully used in our educational base to study the oro-dental
diseases, and improves the diagnosis precision and accuracy. The heat from the skin surface is
converted in digital signal displayed on a computer screen; this signal is analyzed, gaining in this
way information about the metabolic activity in different areas of the body, and showing clearly the
normal aspects, as well as the inflammatory or degenerative processes.
The consulting room for implanto-prosthetic rehabilitation is one of the best equipped
from Iaşi city and the whole country, being connected through the base’s television system with
closed circuit to the amphitheaters where the didactic activity takes place. This consulting room
has all the necessary endowment to achieve stomatological interventions highly accurate and
complex and fulfill all the sterilization requirements necessary for a space well-fitted to make
sophisticated surgical interventions in the maxilla-facial area.
Therefore in this consulting room we made live surgical interventions from the
implantology domain, using also revolutionary methods – the KOS implants, non-traumatic, with
limited bleeding, gingival insertion and immediate loading – which gives ergonomy to the developing
of therapeutic stages, cut short the times with a few months and allows to the patient to return to a
normal life much faster.
The intervention was transmitted in real time in front of an auditorium made from
physicians participating to our postgraduate lectures and this was for them an unique experience
and opportunity, which cannot be found nowhere else in our country and situates our possibilities
at the level of the most prestigious universities in Europe.
Between the last-hour endowments of implanto-prosthetic rehabilitation consulting room
we notice the existence of the EasyShade Clinical Spectrophotometer – precision digital system
to investigate the dental color, which guide the student and then the practitioner to record
accurately these elements, an intrinsic condition to obtain prosthetic restorations of high exigency.
The system is compatible with 3D Master Shade Guide, an important facility being also the
multiple options availability. In this way it become possible to record, at the level of a single tooth,
the differences of nuances in its structure – which gives naturalness to the ulterior prosthetic
restorations.
The system is easy to use, with touch-screen accessible menus for the nuances analysis, it
is not affected by the surrounding illumination conditions and it is capable to detect around 97
different nuances in a few seconds.
The consulting room for dento-
alveolar surgery is meant for the maneuvers
characteristic in this specialty, and assures the
specific training in endodontics, periodontology
and dental prosthetic. The endowment of this
space allows to achieve all the specific
interventions, starting from the basic tooth
extraction and ending with the reshaping of soft
and hard tissue supporting the teeth, biopsy
and removal of simple cysts and other lesions of
the mouth and the management of oral
infections.
The space is equally used during the
practical works with students, as well as for
real time demonstrations, being also connected to the audio – video system of the medical
educational base.
A special attention is paid inside the Medical Education Base to the treatment of
patients with disabilities; we have individualized consulting rooms and a specialized service for
them. We also have the endowment necessary to transport these patients – elevator and
wheelchair. Our stomatologists have the specialized background necessary to approach these
cases, the systems of oral prosthesis being chose according with the disability type. A relevant
sample is represented by the patients with different types of disabilities at the level of superior
members, where the election solution for removable prosthesis is represented by flexible prosthesis.
The presence of modern and fully equipped resuscitation system, inherent for the
emergencies interventions, is another vanguard endowment of the Medical Education Base. The
emergency kit allows to approach and to solve the most complexes clinical situations, being
composed from the following elements:
Oxygen cylinders – 4 l capacity, oxygen pressure reducing system MD 500,
humidifier, mask and inhalator;
Ruben balloon – made in silicone, with pressure reducing system;
Guedel pipes – different sizes;
Tracheal catheter made in sterilisable rubber
Kave Economy laryngoscope
Folding ambulatory bed
The educational base also benefits of one of the most advanced sterilization system,
aspect which leads to the treatment development without contamination risks, giving safety and
comfort to the physicians, as well as to the patients. There are a few Stericell drying ovens with
forced convection which, because of the specific system for air ventilation on a spiral path, allows
to obtain an homogenous temperature and reduced times for heating. The system’s safety is
guaranteed by the doors automated control and the special programs for sterilization. The
sterilization rooms are also equipped with UV air purifiers and kits to pack the medical
instruments in vided bags, which fully correspond to the highest standards in this domain.
The compartmented system of dentistry boxes offers privacy to the patients, as well as
a rigorous distribution of the students during their stages, increasing their possibility to have a real
contact with the patients under treatment.
We pay a special attention in our Medical Education Base for the Center of Formation
Specialists and Resources in Oral Rehabilitation, the first center in Romania with this
specific, founded through a project with European Funds, which gives the optimal framework to
materialize the training – research (production) – clinical application trinomial for students,
resident physicians, PhD students and physicians that attend different forms of postgraduate
studies. Between the last-hour technologies available in this Center we enumerate:
Pletismography: Vascular Doppler with
ultrasound emission: It is a bidirectional
analyze system, with FFT analysis (Fast
Fourier Transformation), designed to record
waveforms for the blood flow pressure. The
apparatus works with a 10 MHz probe – that
contains a piezoelectric crystal which, after
initial charge using electricity, utters
ultrasounds in order to record the blood flow.
The obtained data are sent to the central unit
for digital processing, display and print. The
method is non-invasive, without risks during
the analysis and can be used as initial test in
order to depict some diseases. The records are
made at the level of jugal mucous where the
facial artery has superficial localization, and
the following parameters are recorded: the
pulse index, the resistance index, the
maximum speed of blood flow, the heart
beatings and the systolic – diastolic ratio. The
system has automatic gain and baseline
control – so no manual adjustments are
required – being efficient as well as simple to
use.
Ozone therapy - Ozonytron: This is a
noninvasive, nonspecific, painless therapeutic
system, without adverse reactions,
recommended in endodontic, periodontal or
odontal diseases and having also successfully
results in the diseases of temporo-mandibular
joint. The oxidative properties of ozone combat
the microbial infections, this therapy being
also recommended for patients with severe
liver diseases and allergies at antibiotics.
Ph – metry: It is an adjuvant method
necessary for the therapies scientific approach,
in correlation with the salivary Ph type for each
patient and the dose of Ca, F and Mg ions. The
system is equally useful in order to obtain the
epidemiological model, with deep impact in the
stomatological practice, as well as in the
research field.
The Epithetik Kit: contains different
types of silicone for the structure and
the makeup of maxilla-facial prosthesis,
with the purpose to obtain a good
integration of the prosthetic substitute
at facial level.
The Medical Education Base also contains a very modern Radiology Service, equipped
with the most performant devices, which correspond entirely to the European standards.
THE UNIVERSITARY LABORATORY OF THE DENTAL MEDICAL
EDUCATION BASE
The universitary laboratory of the Dental Medical
Education Base is also endowed with modern technologies,
which guarantees the achievement of high quality
prosthesis, with the newest and the best materials.
In the laboratories of the Medical Education Base
we make metalo-ceramic and metalo-composite crowns
and bridges with excellent esthetics, cast removable
prosthesis with cast clasps and with a wide range of
attachments.
The segment of social prosthetics is also covered
- removable partial and full dentures, for retired, patients with disabilities and young people under
the age of 18.
The laboratory apparatuses allow to achieve metal-free prosthesis: all-ceramic or all-
composite.
The laboratory endowment was made with devices and materials necessary to follow
accurately all the technologic stages specific to the working algorithm: different systems for making
casts with removable die, articulators with facial bow, casting wax profiles to cast partial dentures,
parallelometers and surveyors, new generations ceramics and composites.

Another clinical facilities of Dental Medicine Faculty
from Iasi are being concentrated in the University Dental
Polyclinic, Pediatric Stomatological Clinic, The Clinic
Ambulatory of Maxillo-Facial Surgery – belonging to the Sf.
Spiridon University Hospital and the Clinic of Preventive
and Communitarian Stomatology – within the Municipal
Clinic. This arrangement allows the maintenance of functional
connections between specialties.
1. The University Dental Polyclinic has a specific functional
structure and well-delineated responsibilities. Here we find the
Clinic Ambulatory of Oro-Maxillo-Facial Surgery, which
ensures dental assistance (oral surgery) for about 11.000
patients per year and it is provided with three dental rooms, 2
operating rooms and 10 dental units. Moreover, it is tightly
interwoven with the Discipline of Oro-maxillo-facial Surgery
within St. Spiridon University Hospital.
2. Clinic of Maxillo-Facial Surgery (Chief of Clinic: Prof. Dr. Eugenia Popescu): its
headquarters are located within St. Spiridon University Hospital. Here, maxillo-facial surgery
procedures are being performed, the clinic having 3 operating rooms, 5 equipped dental rooms with
10 dental units, and 11 rooms for patients.
3. Clinic of Pediatric Stomatology (Chief of Clinic: Prof. Dr. Adam Maxim): is made in fact from
two specialties: Pedodontics
Orthodontics and Dento-Facial Orthopedics
Its material basis consists of 12 dental units, 3 dental rooms, a room for Oral Surgery, a
room for Logopedics and a room for Myo-gymnastics.
4. Clinic of Preventive and Communitarian Stomatology: its headquarters are located within
the Municipal Polyclinic, being endowed with 5 dental rooms and 6 dental units.
Besides these, the faculty has academic staff and clinical facilities within some of the most
important hospitals in Iaşi, useful in order to provide students with basic knowledge of general
medicine, such as: Ophthalmology, O.R.L., General Surgery, Neurology, Internal Medicine,
Dermatology, Pediatrics, Endocrinology, and Infectious Diseases.
ADVANTAGES:
The new and modern Dental Medical Education Base, with endowments at the highest
European quality standards, is a concept unique in Romania, which gives rich
opportunities for study, practice and research to all the students that attend graduate or
postgraduate lectures, being a promoter for a vivid academic activity and researches in
vanguard domains;
Well-equipped clinics which cover the whole range of services and dental procedures at a

The most modern and highly performing Dental Radiology Service, together with the dental
laboratories.
The faculty has its own academic staff, and also its own material endowments for the
Disciplines of General Medicine.
DIDACTIC FACILITIES:
The faculty has four equipped amphitheaters of its own
and also it has access to any amphitheater within the University.
Also, our students and the academic staff have full access to the
multimedia laboratories of the University.
The University Medical Library is also one of the best
equipped in the country, being provided with reading rooms
which allow quiet study and free Internet access. Moreover, each
of the faculty’s clinics is endowed with mini-libraries.
The Simulation Laboratory of our Faculty corresponds
to the most modern standards, being endowed with 21 manikins
and all the facilities. Within this laboratory all dental disciplines
perform their practical courses (during a whole module or only
during the first practical courses – from the beginning of the
modules), in order to develop the students’ technical abilities first
on manikins and later on patients.
Moreover, there are here presented the ergonomic aspects
of each procedure.
The faculty also has its own didactic laboratories for the pre-clinical disciplines, at the same
time students having access to the laboratories of the University.
Within the University Dental Polyclinic there is also a very modern and well-equipped
laboratory of dental technique; moreover, there are dental laboratories for total and partial
edentulism treatment, for fabricating the fixed and removable prosthesis and for working with
ceramic and composite materials. All students have access to these laboratories in order to
understand and learn about all technological procedures.
In addition to these, there are also another four modern laboratories, equipped according to
the European standards, and designated to the restorative disciplines, the maxillo-facial and
removable prosthesis, as well as a laboratory of fixed prosthesis.
EUROPEAN PROJECTS:
One of the main achievements of our faculty during the last years is represented by the
winning of three projects with structural European funds, which are developed in order to
modernize the dental medical education process
and to raise it to the highest European standards
of quality. These three projects are interrelated,
combining the theory and the practice as well as
the didactic act with the last-generation
endowments. These projects will allow to
materialize the first integrated curricula of
dental medicine, unitary at national level. We
will implement in Iaşi the first Pilot Center of
Formation Specialists and Resources in Oral
Rehabilitation – cutting-edge field in dental
medicine, which introduces in Romania for the
first time the most modern methods of
education in the world – telemedicine systems
and computer-assisted simulation. The efficacy of
the obtained results will be evaluated through the
partnership with an abroad university, “Johann
Wolfgang Goethe” – Frankfurt, which will create
the adequate framework for a permanent
adjustment according with the European
exigencies.
Didactic performances under the sign of new, European
standards, avant-garde and interactivity:
The introduction in the Romanian medical
education of the periointegration concept,
complex concept which gives viability to the
implant-prosthetic solutions; its basis are found
in fundamental researches regarding the
deposition of active hydroxyapatite on the implant
surface, research subject included in the national
CNCSIS grants.
Beginning with the interrelation theoretical
preparation – practical applicability, the dental
physician – dental technician – medical
assistant trinomial was introduced in the
medical education and the Education Clinical
Base functional as well as, for the first time in
Romania, in the Iaşi Dental Medicine Faculty
curricula; these aspects lead to a competitive
dental care activity, connected to the exigencies of
the European Union.
The introduction of the concept of minimal
invasive diagnosis and therapy which is found
between the noninvasive diagnosis methods
(computerized thermography or alternative
methods for treatment - laser) in the students
curricula – master studies.
The introduction, for the first time at national
level, of the population screening regarding the
oral status correlated with the general health
status, in order to implement a national
prophylactic program for adults. We created The
Day of Prophylaxis, at regional level (Moldova),
which offer the appropriate framework to quantify
the population health status and sanitary
education level, and to share free of charge oral
hygiene products and documentation materials.
The implementation of the concept of computer
assisted simulation by bringing in faculty the
specific equipment available only in a few top
international universities (USA and only 2
European universities) through the European
project „Strategies of practical preparation for
the quick integration on the labor market of
the students specialized in dental medicine”,
contract no.: POSDRU/90/2.1/S/63942.
The introduction in the usual study methods of
the virtual library through the European project
„Adaptation of the superior dental medical
education offer to the labor market needs and
the knowledge - based society”, contract no.:
POSDRU/86/1.2/S/63699.
The providing of a functional endowment
unique in Europe, comparable with similar
Universities from Canada and USA, with boxes
system, computer in each box and modern
methods to transmit the information, based on
the video and audio connection between the
spaces reserved for the patients treatment and
the faculty’s amphitheaters, through a TV system
with closed circuit.
The acquisition through European fund of the
last – second technologies, instead some
common acquisitions in the same domain. Some
relevant examples are the computerized
axiography, the ROBODENT system (POSDRU
Project, contract no. 62208), as well as the
computer assisted simulation systems.

The Students Romanian
Dental Association for Education
(ASDRE) was founded in Iaşi in
2009 under the aegis of the
Romanian Dental Association for
Education (ADRE); its main
objective is to increase the students
real involvement in the original
scientific research domain and the
optimization of educational systems
in dental medicine.
ASDRE joins students from
all the universitary centers from
Romania with a common vision
about the educational environment
and a real and realistic plan of
actions to correlate this at the
European demands.
„There are Romanians who have never been to
Iaşi, although there shouldn’t be any, ‘cause the one
who hasn’t been here cannot cover with
understanding the pages of the most beautiful
chronicles, one cannot fully impregnate with decency
by the spirit of our past more alive and richer than
anywhere else. In his national consciousness there
would be a lack, if he did not see the city that was
and still calls itself today proudly the Capital of
Moldavia”.
Nicolae Iorga
The city of Iaşi does not belong only to the people from Iaşi. It has the rare and hard to be
obtained privilege to be everyone’s. It is not only the metaphysical fortress of the bells, hillocks,
monuments, ineffable twilights, but also, probably, the city with the most numerous museums and
poets per capita from the South-Eastern Europe.
Living in Iaşi itself is a privilege. It is
overwhelming also through the things that now
represent only memories: The Grand Theater
from Copou, The Royal Court, The Mihăileana
Academy.
There is here a well done work
tradition, beyond the fallacious appearances.
By all it has, it represents a real national
library, discreet and expressive part of the
European and universal library .
Immortalized in countless engravings in
various hypostases, the city enters the
conscience of the people by the inspired quill of
the foreign travelers - that is why the never tired
Bandini compares it in 1647 even with a “new
Rome”.
Famous scholars and bishops,
historians and artists, archeologists and writers
have created and breathed in this city during
better or tougher times.
Being one of the oldest and important
settlements in these parts, the Dacian
civilization, followed by the Greek, Roman and then the Byzantine civilizations, conferred the city a
first rang role in the commercial relationships between the Northern and Eastern Europe, on the
one hand, and the Black Sea basin, on the other hand. Against the background of commercial and
artisan’s development the spiritual-Christian life also flourishes with powerful culture centers,
owning an invaluable patrimony (churches, schools, monasteries).
Crossed in turn by Ottoman, Russian or
Austrian troops, ground of the battle for influence,
here, in the surroundings of the Tartars, the City of
Iaşi withstands these events even if often destroyed
by flames or plagues.
The City of Iaşi has also the merit of having
started the 1848 Romanian Revolution, affecting
later on the entire territory inhabited by
Romanians. It was here where the 1859 Union was
settled and the Union Museum and Square evoke
and preserve the burning spirit of the ancestors
eager of national unity and ancient faith
perpetuation.
The Iasi Period of Junimea (Cultural society with Literary Club, printing house, modern
cultural program - 1863 – 1883) is the most prodigious one from the national literature history.
The inter-war period represents another peak moment of the great destinies, buildings and
loves of the city of Iasi, primarily supported by the intellectuals from the Society of Viata
Romaneasca Magazine. Shape diversities, decorations, „art nouveau” and “neo-Romanian” style
merge in a particular, expressive synthesis. At the end of the second World War, the city was
considered by many people an “ended poem”, a “milestone”. Clean city, with old and beautiful
houses where there still can be found quiet streets filled with vegetation, the city of Iaşi is very
similar to the smaller towns in Northern Italy – such as Livorno, and Pisa in particular.
When climbing the Copou Hill, another dimension of the city is revealed: luring and calm
as dusk in May, the city of Iasi is revealed as a city of tile flowers, full moon rays, poetry and
legends that we heard about from our ancestors.
The oldest Botanical Garden in Romania
exhibits reach and valuable collections -
especially the tropical plants, cacti and carnivore
plants green houses which represent special
attractions.
The Copou Park with Eminescu’s Tile
and the Romanian Literature Museum offers a
holy meditation moment, where each year is
organized in June the “Tile Fest” which became a
tradition.
Another recreation area from the city
of Iaşi is Ciric, a necklace of four lakes that
discharge slightly into Bahlui, tenderly
shielded by luxuriant vegetation at whose
shelter, combining classic with modern, the
coffee shops and open bars are hospitably
waiting for their guests.
For the ones interested more in the actual realities, the city of Iaşi has also specific
attractions.
The economic and social life of the city beats in the same rhythm of other great cities of
the country, the city of Iaşi being the second city from the country according to the inhabitants’
number. The region, whose main exponent is, namely the North-Eastern part of the country,
stands for a region with high development potential whose value is really revealed once with
Romania’s integration into the European Union.
Thus, there are still latent and unexploited business opportunities and development
possibilities that can be found here and which could be attractive for the investors.
You also have many choices to spend your free time – in restaurants, clubs and cafes –
elegant, intimate or modern – where you will find quality services, next to the traditional moldavian
ospitality and warmness.
