    Author: Gerbert B, Badner V, Maguire B, Martinoff J, Wycoff S, Crawford W.
    Journal: J Dent Educ; 1987 Dec; 51(12):697-700. PubMed ID: 3479478.
    Abstract:
    To assess recent dental graduates' perceptions about the adequacy of their education, a random sample of individuals who graduated between 1980 and 1982 was surveyed. The 362 respondents (56 percent response rate) indicated their perceived level of preparedness and the importance to practice of 75 topics in the dental school curriculum. The means for level of preparedness and importance to practice were plotted for each of the 75 topics. Those topics that new dentists believed to be underemphasized or overemphasized in the curriculum were identified. These findings have implications for planning curricular changes for dental education.
