Education, research, and personnel needs in orthodontics.
Because of changing patterns of dental care delivery, the nature of orthodontic education, research, and personnel needs has changed markedly in recent times. Changes have occurred in the university environment, dental education, and undergraduate and graduate orthodontic education. Orthodontic research is shifting to more clinically oriented topics. Orthodontic personnel needs are being addressed by changing levels of specialist and general practitioner involvement.
