The purpose of this survey is to review the dental undergraduate curriculum to assess weight and quality of the courses, relevance for present clinical practice, and appropriateness of training for clinical practice. Questionnaires were sent to all (33) final-year dental students, of whom 9 students were from other dental schools, a week before they finished clinical training in the Department of Dentistry of the National Taiwan University Hospital. All students responded. The students reported that their dental curriculum had proper weight and good quality, especially in pre-clinical subjects. The students felt that they received sufficient to very good training in endodontics, operative dentistry and prosthodontics. But, clinical experience in the areas of orthodontics, pediatric dentistry and general dentistry could have been more extensive, However, final-year students indicated that their dental education in basic medical sciences was too extensive. The degree of self-confidence for future solo practice was above 65%. Students would like to receive clinical dental courses earlier, so that they would be able to start clinical practice earlier. There was some imbalance between the weight of medical and dental courses, and among the dental courses themselves. Therefore, readjustment among the courses is needed. In conclusion, the majority of graduating dental students felt that their undergraduate education pre-pared them fairly well for future general practice. The results of this survey have implications for planning curricular changes for dental education.
