Review of Cultural Competency in Dental Schools N=7
• Disparities in oral health of vulnerable populations (Formicola et al & Mouradian et al 2003)
• Lack of standardised cultural competence curriculum delivery (Rowland et al 2006)
• Assessing students knowledge and performance of treating patients of diverse backgrounds (Gregorczyk et al 2008)
The University of Sydney Page 9
Review of Cultural Competency in Dental Schools N=7• Curriculum designed to reflect Indigenous
populations and impacts upon health (Coates et al 2009)
• Transcultural issues in oral care which confront dental students when treating culturally diverse patients (Marino et al 2012)
• Paradigm shift in dental education giving adequate attention to preventive disease management and cultural competence (Ramos-Gomez 2014)
The University of Sydney Page 10
Curriculum Design• Bazen J, Paul D, & Tennant M (2007) formed a
collaborative workgroup to design an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural competence curriculum framework for dental students
• Only one Indigenous Cultural Competence Curriculum Framework for Dental & Oral Health Higher Education reported in the literature …… Western Australia!
• Development of this Framework required a multi level approach involving graduates attributes, year level outcomes and evaluation processes
