Observations on the Teaching of Undergraduate Orthodontics at Leeds

Abstract

The recent changes in undergraduate orthodontic teaching at Leeds are examined and the ways in which the orthodontic curriculum has been adapted to deal with the problems in the organization of larger numbers of students are discussed. The question of whether the new orthodontic curriculum is benefiting the Undergraduate is raised and a comparison has been made of the performances at examination of students who have been trained under old and new curricula.
