The Adelaide undergraduates dental curriculum: an appraisal by recent graduates and final-year students.
Eighty-eight recent graduates and thirty final-year students replied to a questionnaire on the effectiveness of the present Adelaide undergraduate curriculum in relation to general dental practice. A high proportion of the first-year graduates had some difficulties in various aspects of practice management. ⋯ Students especially, but also some graduates, were not competent in several clinical skills. A number of graduates and students were unhappy with the present place and purposes of the pre-clinical science subjects.
