Area of Science:

  • Dental Education
  • Quality Management
  • Public Health Policy

Background:

  • Public accountability and European standards necessitate quality assurance in dental education.
  • Current implementation of recommendations for dental education improvement is often inconsistent and lacks transparency.
  • There is a clear need for a structured, systematic, and transparent approach to Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a model for implementing Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) in dental education.
  • To outline key aspects of a CQI process, including its application and management tools.
  • To advocate for a structured and transparent approach to enhance dental education quality.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a proposed model for CQI in dental education.

  • Identification of three core aspects: CQI process, application subjects, and management tools.
  • Consideration of the role of information and communication technology (ICT) in supporting CQI.

    • Main Results:

    • A comprehensive CQI model is proposed, applicable across diverse dental schools and educational approaches.
    • The model emphasizes balancing quality improvement with accountability within the context of staff attitudes and values.
    • Information and communication technology (ICT) can significantly support the CQI process through data collection and reporting.

    Conclusions:

    • A structured, systematic, and transparent CQI model is essential for improving and maintaining the quality of dental education.
    • An agreed-upon CQI model can foster convergence towards higher educational standards globally.
    • Further development of a network based on case studies is recommended to advance CQI application in dental education.
