Embedding implants in undergraduate dental education
Abstract
This article represents the consensus from a meeting of the British Society of Prosthetic Dentistry's Education Group which met to discuss implant dentistry at the undergraduate dental student level. The consensus recognises the need to embed the teaching of implant supported prostheses if such a treatment modality is to be widely practised after graduation. This short article makes some recommendations as well as detailing some challenges and barriers that need to be overcome if implant dentistry is to be successfully embedded in an undergraduate dental curriculum.
