초록

This study was conducted to propose guidelines for Korean geriatric dentistry education in response to changes in society in which the number of older persons is rapidly increasing. By referring to the American, European, and Japanese geriatric dentistry curriculum, the same or highly related items were integrated and reorganized, and new items were added considering the need for education. Through inter-researcher discussion, geriatric dentistry education topics and educational competency items were composed. A survey was conducted on the proposed items among educational experts at dental schools and executives of the Korean Academy of Geriatric Dentistry. After classifying the level of education required into basic or expert curriculum, educational guidelines based on education topics and educational competencies were presented. Educational topics consist of 54 didactic items and 2 practice items in 7 areas including <Public health issues> <Aging> <Aspects of Geriatric medicine> <Communication skills> <Logistic aspects> <Diagnosis & Treatment planning> <Therapy & Prevention>. The core competencies consisted of 83 items in 7 areas including <Understanding of aging> <Medical aspects> <Communication> <Logistic aspects> <Diagnosis, Treatment planning and Treatment> <Prevention and Care> <Public health aspects>. The subjects of socioeconomic aspects, aging, medical and pharmacological aspects in older people, and educational contents for functionally independent older people are mostly classified into the basic educational level. On the other hand, the topics of oral care and treatments, oral and maxillofacial functional rehabilitation, and management areas for frail and dependent older people mostly with sensory or cognitive problems were classified into the expert level. Currently, geriatric dentistry in Korea has been limited to the category of dental treatment for the functionally independent older adults who can visit outpatient clinics. The results of this study had significance in that it presents educational topics and competencies for the functionally frail and dependent older adults. The results of this study can be used for improving not only education curriculum for geriatric dentistry at each and every dental school but also continuing education programs, and will serve as basic and essential data for future research.

Abstract

This study was conducted to propose guidelines for Korean geriatric dentistry education in response to changes in society in which the number of older persons is rapidly increasing. By referring to the American, European, and Japanese geriatric dentistry curriculum, the same or highly related items were integrated and reorganized, and new items were added considering the need for education. Through inter-researcher discussion, geriatric dentistry education topics and educational competency items were composed. A survey was conducted on the proposed items among educational experts at dental schools and executives of the Korean Academy of Geriatric Dentistry. After classifying the level of education required into basic or expert curriculum, educational guidelines based on education topics and educational competencies were presented. Educational topics consist of 54 didactic items and 2 practice items in 7 areas including <Public health issues> <Aging> <Aspects of Geriatric medicine> <Communication skills> <Logistic aspects> <Diagnosis & Treatment planning> <Therapy & Prevention>. The core competencies consisted of 83 items in 7 areas including <Understanding of aging> <Medical aspects> <Communication> <Logistic aspects> <Diagnosis, Treatment planning and Treatment> <Prevention and Care> <Public health aspects>. The subjects of socioeconomic aspects, aging, medical and pharmacological aspects in older people, and educational contents for functionally independent older people are mostly classified into the basic educational level. On the other hand, the topics of oral care and treatments, oral and maxillofacial functional rehabilitation, and management areas for frail and dependent older people mostly with sensory or cognitive problems were classified into the expert level. Currently, geriatric dentistry in Korea has been limited to the category of dental treatment for the functionally independent older adults who can visit outpatient clinics. The results of this study had significance in that it presents educational topics and competencies for the functionally frail and dependent older adults. The results of this study can be used for improving not only education curriculum for geriatric dentistry at each and every dental school but also continuing education programs, and will serve as basic and essential data for future research.
