SUMMARY
DISCUSSION ITEMS

Discuss overall dental health by having students write down their thoughts on what dental
health means in general and what dental health means to them.

Ask students to bring in articles from the newspaper, magazines, or the Internet about a
public health issue that focus on preventive modalities and use these articles to begin the
discussion about defining primary preventive dentistry.

SIMULATION ACTIVITY

Have the students work in groups of three to four to develop a preventive health program.
Choose a setting for the program or have each group come up with a setting. After
students have developed and recorded their program, have them present it briefly to the
class. Collect the programs and keep them until one of the final class periods, when you
have discussed disease and prevention. Return the original programs to the groups and
have the students make necessary revisions to each program. Students enjoy this activity.
The first program tends to be limited about preventive dental health, but by the end of the
course, the preventive health programs expand to include many areas. This is a great
confidence builder to future dental providers.
