A few good faculty.
Faculty shortages have been in concern in dental academia for the past several years. The American Dental Education Association has taken the lead in bringing this issue to the forefront of dental education, creating initiatives that begin to turn academia into a worthwhile career option for dentists. Income opportunities, faculty development, lifelong learning and job satisfaction must all be addressed, in order to fill vacancies and avoid high turnover. Contemporary dental education needs faculty who don't just want a job: they need to want to create a career out of teaching. How we provide inspiration and preparation for these individuals throughout their careers is critical to dentistry's success.
