Teeth01:15

Teeth

The formation of teeth, also known as odontogenesis, is a complex process that begins in utero, around the sixth week of embryonic development. There are three stages to this process: the bud stage, the cap stage, and the bell stage.
In the bud stage, the tooth germ (an aggregation of cells) starts to form in the developing jawbone. During the cap stage, the tooth germ differentiates into enamel organ, dental papilla, and dental sac, which will later develop into the tooth's enamel, dentin and...
Tooth Anatomy01:21

Tooth Anatomy

The human tooth enables us to eat a variety of foods, speak clearly, and even aid in shaping our faces. Teeth are composed of various elements that work together. Here's a detailed look at the anatomy of a human tooth.
The Crown, Neck, and Root
The visible part of the tooth is referred to as the crown. It's covered by enamel, the hardest substance in the human body. The crown is uniquely shaped for each type of tooth, allowing for different functions such as cutting, tearing, or grinding food.
Associative Learning01:27

Associative Learning

Associative learning is a fundamental concept in behavioral psychology, wherein a connection is established between two stimuli or events, leading to a learned response. This process is critical in understanding how behaviors are acquired and modified. Conditioning, the mechanism through which associations are formed, can be divided into two main types: classical conditioning and operant conditioning, each elucidating different aspects of associative learning.
Classical conditioning, also known...

Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching III: Evaluation and Documentation

Evaluation of the teaching process enables the nurse to determine if the patient's learning needs were met and if training was effective. If the expected outcomes are not met, the care plan is revised, and additional education or reinforcement is provided. Nurses can ask questions after the session or obtain feedback to assess the patient's understanding of the topic.
Nurses can use several methods to evaluate patient outcomes. For example, oral questions can assess cognitive learning, patient...
Theoretical Foundations of Nursing Practice01:30

Theoretical Foundations of Nursing Practice

Theories play an essential role in organizing patient care. Theories refer to a proposed or followed belief, policy, or procedure that is the basis for action. Nursing theories are knowledge-based concepts that guide nurses' actions, influence nursing education and practice, and allow nurses to care for their patients.
Theories provide a perspective to assess patients' conditions and organize data and methods. They also assist in analyzing and interpreting information. They represent a...

Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching I: Assessment and Diagnosis

The nursing process provides a clinical decision-making framework for patients and families to establish and implement a personalized care plan. Since part of the nurse's duties is to teach patients, the steps of the nursing process are the most effective way to approach instruction. The nursing process and the teaching-learning process are inextricably linked.
It is critical to determine the patient's learning needs during the assessment. Determination of learning needs compounds data from the...

Area of Science:

  • Dental Education
  • Continuing Dental Education
  • Professional Learning

Background:

  • Dental schools historically supported post-graduate dentist learning.
  • The Journal of Dental Education and Proceedings of the American Association of Dental Schools provide historical context.
  • Understanding the evolution of dental schools' role in lifelong learning is crucial.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the historical role of dental schools in supporting continuing dental education.
  • To analyze the trends in dental schools' involvement in continuing dental education since the 1960s.
  • To examine the development of scholarship on how dentists learn throughout their careers.

Main Methods:

  • Historical document analysis of key dental education publications.
  • Examination of data on continuing dental education emergence and growth.
  • Review of scholarship trends in dental education and professional learning.

Main Results:

  • Continuing dental education emerged in the 1960s and grew, but dental schools' participation declined from the 1980s.
  • Scholarship on how dentists learn and master their discipline has not kept pace.
  • Both dental schools' declining role and lagging scholarship are attributed to external competition and internal weaknesses.

Conclusions:

  • Dental schools' historical contribution to continuing dental education has diminished.
  • There is a significant gap in scholarly understanding of dentists' lifelong learning processes.
  • Addressing these issues requires tackling both external competitive pressures and intrinsic limitations in dental education scholarship.
