title: Recent trends among dental residents at Tokyo Dental College.
abstract: Trends among dental residents at Tokyo Dental College between 2006, at which time clinical residency became mandatory, and 2011 were analyzed and the following results obtained. Almost all the eligible students from our school participated in the orientation seminar on dental residency programs. Although the number varied slightly by year, approximately 70 to 150 students from other schools also participated in these orientation seminars. Almost all the students from our school and 60 to 80% of those from other schools participating in the orientation seminar each year applied to sit the dental residency entrance examination. The number of candidates was highest in 2006 (318) and lowest in 2010 (205) (average: 248), and the applicant-to-seat ratio for residency was 1.59. The examination pass rate was 59.02%. Approximately 10% of the students from other schools were admitted as dental residents.
