Dental Education and Research
Dental education is university based with much of the formal clinical teaching in dental hospitals, often with some outreach programs to provide clinical experience in contrasting settings.
Dental schools are traditionally staffed by academic teachers, assisted by part-time staff from clinical practice. Dental researchers within these institutions play important roles in contributing to knowledge as well as teaching.
The seven domains of professional activity in the general practice of dentistry are as follows:
- Professionalism
- Communication and interpersonal skills
- Knowledge base, information handling and critical thinking
- Clinical information gathering
- Diagnosis and treatment planning
- Establishment and maintenance of oral health
- Health promotion
Dental research can be defined as formalized acquisition and investigation of subject matter related to dental profession.
