title: Computer applications in oral diagnosis.
abstract: Eventually, computer technology may be used in the home or practice to satisfy continuing education requirements. Additionally, this technology may be used by state licensing agencies as a component of their testing procedure. At the present time, a Patient Simulation Consortium and Electronic Curriculum Consortium have been established within the American Association of Dental Schools.7, 15 These groups, and others, will continue to develop and test new technologies for use in dentistry.
