Abstract
A questionnaire survey of dental schools in the United Kingdom was undertaken to evaluate the teaching of periodontology and the extent to which the curricula correlate with the guidelines set by the European Federation of Periodontology (EFP) in 1996. The questionnaire sought details regarding the basic structure and content of courses, the manpower for teaching the subject, methods of assessment and evaluation, and extra‐curricula opportunities linked to periodontology. The responses show that there is considerable consistency between the UK schools in teaching periodontology and that the curriculum content largely fulfils EFP guidelines. The survey has also established an extensive database on information in this area of undergraduate dental education.
