    Area of Science:

    • Dental Education
    • Continuing Professional Development

    Background:

    • Continuing dental education (CDE) programs in US dental schools exhibit varied development stages.
    • Some institutions offer established, long-standing CDE programs, while others are recent entrants.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To profile the current state of continuing dental education in US dental schools.
    • To identify perceived needs and future requirements for CDE.

    Main Methods:

    • A survey or assessment of US dental schools regarding their CDE offerings and perceived needs.
    • Analysis of responses from participating dental schools.

    Main Results:

    • Over half of surveyed dental schools reported an unmet need for continuing dental education in their local areas.
    • A significant majority (49 schools) recognized the necessity of a future accreditation or evaluation system for CDE programs.

    Conclusions:

    • There is a recognized gap in local continuing dental education provision across many US dental schools.
    • The dental school community largely supports the future implementation of an accreditation or evaluation framework for CDE to enhance program quality.
