Abstract

A 73.1percent response rate was obtained in a postal questionnaire survey conducted among Malaysian dentists to assess their attitudes and needs for continuing dental education. It appeared that on an average the Malaysian dentist spent very little time on continuing education, reading journals and participation in professional dental meetings.The need for continuing education was strongly evident as almost all dentists indicated that such activities be further developed in
Malaysia.Crown and Bridge work, Oral Surgery and Orthodontic appeared to be areas in which more continuing education were required.
