Current status of Geriatric Dentistry Educational Activities in U.S. dental schools.

Abstract:

:The current status of Geriatric Dentistry Educational Activities (GDEA) in U.S. dental schools is reported in this survey. Data were collected regarding faculty involvement in geriatric programs, didactic and clinical academic curricula, and other aspects of the ongoing activities in schools. Data were reported by 50 (88 percent) of the nation's 57 dental schools in continuing operation. Forty-two schools reported discrete GDEA at the time of the study. Seven of these schools had a formal division or department of geriatric dentistry. The survey indicated that educational qualification of GDEA coordinators had risen significantly in recent years. The mean number of didactic hours (29) of instruction in geriatric education available to students has also risen. Curriculum time and financial considerations were the primary obstacles to expansion of clinical geriatric activities. With the current economic constraints in dental education, present GDEA levels are unlikely to expand in the foreseeable future, unless governmental or private agencies recognize the importance of developing GDEA and increase their support.
