Introduction

The curriculum has been designed and modified over the years to

reflect the changing needs of the dental students and dental profession.

Our goal is to develop dental practitioners who are able to utilize the

basic principles of human biology and human behavior with their

technical skills in diagnosing, treating, and preventing oral disease.

STRATEGY AND AIMS:

The evolution of biotechnology and biomedical sciences in general,

together with new developments in the knowledge and technology of

dental sciences has generated such a volume of new knowledge that it is

practically impossible to maintain the currency of traditional curricula

(i.e. where education is based on teaching independent subjects).

It has become evident that traditional curricula and traditional

methodologies of teaching, e.g. those based upon lectures and acquisition

of knowledge by rote, are not effective in the fostering of learning habits

that instill a culture of self-directed learning, which is so necessary in the

current knowledge society and especially for health care providers.

The solution lies in the introduction of flexibility in curricular models

and in the need to integrate basic, medical and dental sciences both

vertically and horizontally. This should inspire students to become life-

long learners and to continue the process of knowledge acquisition for

evidence-based practice throughout their professional lives.


THE OPTIMUM CURRICULA

To attempt to solve the problem of curricular overload, a core

curriculum is proposed where content and competences that are

fundamental to the accomplishment of the agreed professional profile and

learning outcomes are defined. By providing a core curriculum plus a

catalogue of dental electives all dental graduates should achieve a wide-

ranging core of clinical education in order to allow them to meet the

requirements for competence as established in the profile. At the same

time, there should be some freedom to study diverse topics that will allow

them to explore areas of particular interest in greater depth. Health

professionals should engage in a broad academic education embracing

topics beyond the field of dentistry to better understand their role in

society.

PRIMARY RECOMMENDATIONS – CURRICULUM

CONTENT

1. The content of the dental curriculum should directly be related and

contribute to the Profile and Competences for the Dentist.

2. College should ensure that the content of the curriculum is evidence

based and reflects current best practice throughout the entire program.

3. Early contact between patients and dental students should take place.

In particular, it is necessary in first or second-year dental students to have

some contact with patients.

4. Effective infection control should be integral to all clinical activity

5. Integrated patient care should be a fundamental part of the clinical

education

6. A research project should be an integral part of the dental curriculum.

7. Basic and biomedical subjects should be learned in an integrated

manner.


8. Education including hands-on training in basic life support skills

should be compulsory, repeated and assessed.

SECONDARY RECOMMENDATIONS - CURRICULUM

CONTENT

1. The study of medical and other conditions that have relevance for

dentists in their treatment of patients should be strengthened.

2. Education in the behavioral and social sciences is advocated in order to

ensure that dentists communicate effectively with their patients, team

members and other health professionals.

3. Education in dental public health, preventive and community dentistry

is advocated

4. An integrated approach to education in ethics and professional conduct

is recommended

5. Practice management, and information and computer technology (ICT)

should be included in the curriculum

6. There should be increasing emphasis on team work with some

elements of integration between the educational programs for the

different dental team members

7. It is desirable that electives should form an integral part of the

undergraduate Curriculum.
