Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the current state of dental anesthesiology education in Korea.
Methods: We evaluated the curriculums of education, and class syllabus of subject which is related with dental anesthesiology education in 9 dental colleges and schools among total 11 in Korea. We investigated the subject name, numbers of teacher, lecture time, credit, and lecture content.
Results: All the nine dental schools and colleges have dental anesthesiology in undergraduate education curriculum. The curriculum of dental anesthesiology was divided into two subjects (local anesthesia area and general anesthesia area) in 5 dental colleges and schools. The average credit was 1.78, and average lecture time was 30.5 hours/4 year (16-82 hours). Seven schools and colleges had lectures about dental sedation, and three had lectures about pain treatment in dental anesthesiology subject. But, there was only one school which had clinical practice curriculum in the Hospital.
Conclusions: In Korean dental undergraduate education, dental anesthesiology was mostly conducted by lectures, and clinical teaching programs were not well organized.
