The Teaching of Dento-Maxillo-Facial Radiology in Australian Dental Schools

The skills necessary to successfully perform radiological procedures in general dental practice are described and should be used as criteria when developing an effective undergraduate curriculum and as determinants of the contents of continuing education programmes. The present status of undergraduate curricula, continuing education, and postgraduate programmes as well as the recognition of the specialized nature of dento‐maxillo‐facial radiology, are discussed and recommendations for future developments are made. 1989 Australian Dental Associatio
