Abstract
As the social interest in medical care has increased and the awareness and autonomy of patients have increased, the importance of communication skills with patients has been increasingly emphasized in providing high quality medical services. In medical education, such education has become an important area in medical school and lifelong medical education, with studies showing that communication skills can be improved through education and training, and that this learned communication skills can be maintained after becoming a doctor. The importance of communication education and research for dental college students is growing as practical examination on communication skills will also be introduced in dental license tests from 2021. Therefore, we aimed to find out the educational goals and educational methods of United States in which these studies are conducted and applied before our country, and compare them with Korean's current educational goals and methods, so that we can explore the desirable direction of education for dental college students in the future.
