Abstract

|
|
Objectives: The objective of this study is to collect the opinions of experts in the field of dental hygienists, and to present a plan for reorganizing the dental radiology curriculum for producing clinical-based dental hygienists.
Methods: From February?June 2021, a survey was conducted among dental hygienists working in dental institutions.
Results: Currently, X-ray film education scored higher, at 3 or more points, while digital sensor education showed only a score of 2 points.
In practice, digital sensors are used more in the field, indicating inconsistencies between the curriculum and the field.
Conclusions: It is important to minimize the difference between the curriculum and the clinical field in order to produce field-oriented dental technicians. To this end, digital sensor education should be increased in the curriculum.
