Abstract:
The behavioural science course for the undergraduate dental curriculum at Liverpool university Dental School is designed to be integrated into the basic science and clinical teaching. The course is taught by a clinical psychologist and social anthropologist. The course has an input to each of the 5 years of the student's training. This paper presents three examples (community dental visits, communication skills training and special symposia) of how the course is being developed, illustrating the strengths and some shortcomings requiring further development.
