Dental education in Nordic countries varies significantly in basic science integration. Some faculties use subject-specific teaching, while others blend integrated and subject-specific approaches for better curriculum coordination.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Dental Curriculum Development

Background:

  • Dental education curricula across Nordic countries were examined.
  • Variations in basic science subject integration were noted.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the structure, content, and integration of basic science teaching in dental faculties.
  • To compare teaching methodologies and faculty backgrounds.

Main Methods:

  • A questionnaire was distributed to 10 dental faculties in Denmark, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, and Finland.
  • Data collected covered curriculum structure, teaching methods, and interdisciplinary integration.

Main Results:

  • Significant diversity in basic science teaching structures was observed.
  • Approaches ranged from purely subject-specific to fully integrated models within clinical training.
