Dental education in the 21st century.
The continuum of dental education has been greatly strengthened by the General Dental Council's educational initiatives during the past five years and these are described in this paper: lifelong learning and recertification will reassure the public and full integration of team members through statutory registration with one self-regulatory body is an innovation in the regulation of health professionals. Future training and educational strategies, including the health science concept, for team members are explored.
