A critical investigation of paedodontic education with special reference to graduates of the University of Stellenbosch

Philosophiae Doctor - PhD / In South Africa the general dental practitioner has sole re$ponsibility
for the provision of child dental care. Accordingly, at Stellenbosch
University the objective of the undergraduate paedodontic curriculum is
to train a general dental practitioner who is able to provide comprehensive
dental care for all categories of children.As this approach is not in accordance with that prevailing in most
countries, particularly countries acknowledged to be leaders in the field
of 'paedodontics, the objective of this investigation is to examine and
test the validity of the philosophy of paedodontic education as it exists
in South Africa in general and at the University of Stellenbosch in
particular.
