Teeth

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...

Area of Science:

Dental education
Orthodontic training
Residency program selection

Background:

Orthodontic residency remains a highly desirable career path.
Contemporary challenges like student debt and changing practice models necessitate re-evaluating selection factors.

Purpose of the Study:

To re-assess factors influencing orthodontic residency program selection.
To understand applicant priorities amidst current financial and practice environment changes.

Main Methods:

Mixed-methods study combining qualitative interviews (N=15) and quantitative surveys (N=239).
Interviews explored values and influences; surveys quantified desirable and undesirable program characteristics.
Data analyzed using qualitative thematic analysis and bivariate/descriptive statistics, stratified by debt.

Main Results:

Key desirable factors include strong clinical training, positive interview experiences, low program cost, good facilities, and high patient numbers.
Location, program reputation, and resident satisfaction are also significant influences.
Less desirable factors include hospital-based programs, certificate-only options, research intensity, and extensive after-hours work.

Conclusions:

Clinical education and interview experiences remain critical for orthodontic residency selection.
Program cost has emerged as a significantly more important factor for applicants.
Findings can inform orthodontic programs on applicant recruitment and highlight the need to address educational costs.
