[Education on the subject of ethnic minorities].
Taking into account the large number of patients belonging to ethnic minorities (in the four big cities they represent about 25% of the population) and the problems healthworkers often experience in treating these patients, it is desirable that future dentists and dental hygienists are prepared at their school to communicate with members of minority groups. Attention should be paid to the attitude of the student towards members of ethnic minorities as well as to the enlargement of knowledge (of demography, different patterns of diseases, social-cultural background, identity problems, attitude towards healthworkers and more). The attention paid in the curriculum of dental schools (dental students and dental hygienists) however, is (nearly) nil, with the exception of the Amsterdam dental hygienist school.
