Abstract

BACKGROUND

A meeting was organised to consolidate a network of researchers and academics from Australia, Brazil, Chile, the UK and the USA, relating to Early Childhood Caries (ECC) and Dental Trauma (DT). As part of this meeting, a dedicated session was held on the future of paediatric dental education and curricula. Twenty-four paediatric dentistry (PD) academics, representing eight Chilean dental schools, and three international specialists (from Brazil and Latvia) participated in group discussions facilitated by five members of the ECC/DT International Collaborative Network. Data were collected from group discussions which followed themes developed as guides to identify key issues associated with paediatric dentistry education, training and research.

DISCUSSION

Participants discussed current PD dental curricula in Chile, experiences in educating new cohorts of oral health care providers, and the outcomes of existing efforts in education and research in PD. They also, identified challenges, opportunities and areas in need of further development. This paper provides an introspective analysis of the education and training of PD in Chile; describes the input provided by participants into pediatric dentistry education and curricula; and sets out some key priorities for action with suggested directions to best prepare the future dental workforce to maximise oral health outcomes for children. Immediate priorities for action in paediatric dentistry in Chile were proposed.

摘要

背景

组织了一次会议，以巩固来自澳大利亚、巴西、智利、英国和美国的研究人员及学者网络，该网络与幼儿龋齿（ECC）和牙外伤（DT）相关。作为此次会议的一部分，专门召开了一场关于儿科牙科教育及课程未来发展的会议。来自智利八所牙科学院的24名儿科牙科（PD）学者以及三名国际专家（来自巴西和拉脱维亚）参加了由ECC/DT国际合作网络的五名成员主持的小组讨论。从小组讨论中收集了数据，这些讨论围绕着为确定与儿科牙科教育、培训及研究相关的关键问题而制定的主题展开。

讨论

参与者讨论了智利当前的PD牙科课程、培养新一代口腔卫生保健提供者的经验以及PD现有教育和研究工作的成果。他们还确定了挑战、机遇以及需要进一步发展的领域。本文对智利PD的教育和培训进行了反思性分析；描述了参与者对儿科牙科教育及课程的贡献；并列出了一些关键行动优先事项以及建议方向，以便为未来的牙科劳动力做好最佳准备，从而使儿童的口腔健康成果最大化。文中还提出了智利儿科牙科的近期行动优先事项。
