About the Program
Academic Leadership in Restorative Sciences. The PhD program in Prosthodontics at Cyprus Health and Social Sciences University (CHSSU) aims to cultivate “Doctors of Philosophy (PhD)” capable of restoring dental deficiencies and oral tissues using the most advanced techniques. Our program offers profound academic depth across a broad spectrum, from classical prosthetic techniques to the most complex implant-supported restorations. By blending biomechanical principles with the art of aesthetics, we train visionary scholars who do not just treat cases but actively shape the global prosthodontic literature.
Educational Opportunities
Digital Workflows and Advanced Research Infrastructure. Our doctoral education consists of in-depth courses such as Advanced Occlusion, Maxillofacial Prosthetics, and Dental Material Science, elevating both methodological and clinical skills. The CAD/CAM systems and 3D scanning technologies available in our modern clinics provide students with the opportunity to specialize in the world of digital dentistry. Guided by our expert faculty, the thesis process enables candidates to make world-class scientific discoveries in areas such as biomaterial durability, implant-prosthetic interaction, and digital smile design.
Career Opportunities
Graduates of the CHSSU PhD in Prosthodontics program command immense respect in both academia and the clinical sector under the title of “Doctor.” Our alumni can pursue distinguished academic careers as faculty members in schools of dentistry, leading scientific research and contributing to the global body of knowledge. In the clinical field, they are qualified to serve as clinical directors in comprehensive oral health centers or provide advanced aesthetic and implant-focused treatments in their own specialized practices. Furthermore, they can take on strategic roles as R&D specialists and consultants for global dental material manufacturers, managing projects that define the future of dental technology.
