Professional dental licensure does not ensure competency. The American Association of Dental Examiners established criteria for periodic dentist competency assessments and proposed several models for evaluation.

Area of Science:

  • Dental education and professional standards
  • Healthcare professional competency assessment

Background:

  • Professional licensure is a baseline, not a guarantee of ongoing competence.
  • The need for periodic competency assessment in dentistry was recognized by regulatory bodies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To define criteria for periodic competency assessment of dentists.
  • To explore proposed models for dental competency evaluation.

Main Methods:

  • Convening a committee by the American Association of Dental Examiners in 1993.
  • Outlining established criteria for competency assessments.
  • Discussing various assessment models.

Main Results:

  • Specific criteria for periodic dental competency assessment were established.
