    Area of Science:

    • Dental Science
    • Prosthodontics
    • Dental Education

    Background:

    • Millions require prosthodontic services due to incomplete dentitions.
    • Projected decrease in edentulous patients will alter service utilization.
    • Demand for extensive prosthodontic services is currently high and growing.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze the future needs and demands for prosthodontic services.
    • To assess the impact of curriculum changes on prosthodontic education.
    • To evaluate the adequacy of predoctoral prosthodontic training.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of current and projected dental health needs.
    • Review of National Board Dental Examinations failure rates (1980-1987).
    • Assessment of prosthodontic curricular time and its implications.

    Main Results:

    • Demand for fixed prosthodontics is expected to increase with new materials and techniques.
    • National Board Dental Examinations failure rates in prosthodontics remained stable.
    • Reductions in prosthodontic curriculum time are making comprehensive education challenging.

    Conclusions:

    • Prosthodontic services will be needed long-term, with a shift towards fixed prosthodontics.
    • Current educational standards appear adequate based on exam data, but curriculum cuts pose a risk.
    • Maintaining educational quality requires careful consideration of curricular time and content in prosthodontics.
