Abstract:
The problem-solving model for dental hygiene practice requires careful assessment, planning, implementation and evaluation to provide quality dental hygiene care. To facilitate this problem-solving approach, a method of recording information in an organized and highly communicative manner must be established. This paper describes the components of a problem-oriented dental record used by students at the Vancouver Community College and discusses the benefits of using this tool in clinical practice.
