Abstract

Background: The purpose of this study is to present an integrated Model for the Iranian General Dentistry curriculum. Methods: In this study, the qualitative method of focal groups was used. First, using library studies and analysis and interpretation of the resulted information, possible types of integration in the dental curriculum and real experiences of some of the world's leading universities were studied. Then, based on theoretical arguments and experimental achievements of the accredited universities, the design of the optimal Integrated Curriculum of the General Dentistry was done and the validity of the designed Model was validated through an interview with the experts of the field of dentistry using the Delphi method. Results: Studying the experiences of different universities in integrating the dentistry curriculum, it was concluded that the experience of these universities regarding the Integrated Curriculum Model resulted in positive outcomes. In general, the focus of the activities of modifying the curriculum in these universities was on integrated approaches focused on “ learning with research” , “ evidence-based dentistry” and “ introduction of new sciences" in dental curriculum design. Conclusion: The integrated dental education curriculum Model has three levels (academic level, field of study level, level of thematic program or content of the course); by deciding on four elements (goals, content, method and evaluation) and by following four principles (simultaneous integration at micro and macro levels; diversity of methods and multi-dimensionality; the balance between content and process-oriented nature of the integrated program; and completion of internal and external integration) aims at producing curricula.
