Oral Health
www.ua.edu.au/degrees
oral
Graduates from the Bachelor of Oral Health form an integral part of the dental team and provide preventive and general dental care for the population in both public and private sectors.
Program structure
The dynamic curriculum of the Bachelor of Oral Health is delivered within a problem-based learning (PBL) approach. The emphasis of contextual learning of relevant scientic information throughout the program occurs concurrently with the development of clinical skills. PBL is an approach that develops problem solving strategies, a disciplinary knowledge base and professional skills. PBL places students in the active role of a problem solver confronted with an issue/patient scenario, which mirrors a real-world situation. In many examples, the students study real-life cases. There are four highly integrated streams in each year of the Bachelor of Oral Health that continue through the three years of the program. Some classes are delivered in a team context with Bachelor of Dental Surgery students.
Global Learning
The University of Adelaide is committed to offering all its students the opportunity to study overseas through a range of programs including student exchange, study tours and summer and winter schools. There are many exciting opportunities in the Americas, Europe and Asia. For the most up-to-date information about these programs please visit www. adelaide.edu.au/student/study_abroad
Streams
Dental and Health Science Dental and Health Science 1 aims to introduce students to the oral cavity and to the areas that support the practice of an oral health therapist. This includes management of the oral environment, periodontology, cariology, minimal intervention and prevention. Students are introduced to the behavioural sciences and psychology relevant to the practice of oral health therapy. The Dental and Health Science 2 stream will build on the knowledge developed in Dental and Health Science 1 and introduce the role of the oral health therapist in specialised dental practice. It covers community dental health issues and develops the role of the operative and preventive oral healththerapist.
Potential careers
There are a variety of career paths available to graduates, including oral health therapy, dental therapy, dental hygiene, health promotion, early childhood to geriatric dentistry, health administration, Indigenous studies, special needs, dental health research and postgraduate studies. Career prospects are good for oral health therapists across Australia, particularly in rural andremote areas. It is envisaged that most Bachelor of Oral Health graduates will work as oral health therapists, providing periodontal maintenance, basic dentistry and prevention.
Second year
Third year
Dental and Health Science 3 aims to further develop and consolidate the paedodontic clinical role and the more specialised aspects of the oral health therapist, including areas such as early childhood, special needs, geriatric dentistry, and dental public health. Human Biology This stream aims to equip students with the biological grounding for the practice of oral health. It is an introduction to the anatomy and physiology of the human body and in particular to the orofacial regions. This leads to the study of the Human Biology 2 stream, which prepares students to understand the medical aspects of clinical oral health practice including pharmacology, the use of local anaesthetics and the management of dental and medical emergencies in dental practice. Clinical Practice Clinical Practice provides students with the opportunity to integrate theoretical knowledge with practical application in a clinical setting. This stream will build on students skills as clinicians in oral health therapy practice. Each successive year assists in the consolidation of skills in preventive (minimal intervention), periodontal and restorative clinical practice. Professional Studies This stream will assist students in developing a broad range of generic skills to support their role asoral health care workers. Communication skills will be developed to assist students in their role as oral health educators. Team building communication introduces the concept of teamwork, which underpins the professional role of member of the dental team. It will enable students to communicate effectively and facilitate the establishment of professional working relationships with patients and other members of the dental team. Students are also introduced to evidence based dentistry to enable them to apply evidence-based decision making to the clinical issues they may be faced with.
Oral Health Elective This stream is made available to students in third year and provides the opportunity to focus on a major area of interest that will enhance a students role as an oral health professional. Study will be in the form of a research-based project that will allow exploration of a focus area in greater depth.
Application process
All Bachelor of Oral Health applicants are required to attend an Oral Assessment Interview. Applicants must also track the progress of their application through the Faculty of Health Sciences application tracking website: www.health.adelaide.edu.au/ tracking Important information, such as self-booking of oral assessment times will only be available on this website.
