Abstract

Objective structured clinical examinations (OSCEs) have been used to assess clinical skills in the health sciences for over 40 years and have a proven track record when used by boards to determine whether a licensure candidate possesses the necessary level of skills to practice. A dental licensure OSCE is being developed by the Joint Commission on National Dental Examinations. Extensive field testing will be conducted to ensure there is validity evidence supporting use of the dental licensure OSCE. Dental boards will be provided the necessary validity evidence supporting use of the DLOSCE to identify candidates who do and do not possess the level of dental clinical skills that are necessary to safely practice.
