Abstract
Objective: In December 2011, Fukuoka Dental College (FDC) established a satellite dental hospital: the Center for Oral Diseases (COD). One of the purposes of the COD was to acquire a sufficient number of patients for the clinical training of dental students. The purpose of this study was to evaluate patients’ acceptance of treatment by dental students at FDC and the COD, and to identify factors that may predispose patients to non-acceptance of treatment by dental students.
Methods: We questioned all new patients on their acceptance of receiving dental treatment performed by dental students, and their answers were recorded. We then compared the degree of acceptance between FDC and the COD.
Results: The degree of non-acceptance was significantly higher in the COD patients. Furthermore, both female and halitosis patients displayed a higher degree of non-acceptance. When halitosis patients were excluded, the degree of acceptance did not differ significantly between the two hospitals.
Conclusion: There may be many reasons for patient non-acceptance of dental treatment performed by students. However, halitosis patients were found to be more nervous on being treated or observed by students. Based on these results, the COD may be able to serve as an effective student training dental hospital if halitosis patients are excluded from the clinical training course.
