New frontiers in the continuum of dental education.
During the past 150 years, dental education and training have changed from an apprenticeship to a university-based dental school. The future of dental education will be shaped by changing demographics, advances in technology, and a greater integration of science and research into the dental profession. We are entering an age of interdisciplinary practice, where dentistry provides oral health care as an integral part of an individual's overall health care.
