PARK, M.D., and CHARLES KRUMWIEDE, M.D. When the New York University College of Dentistry became part of New York University it became our duty to teach the subject of Bacteriology as well as Protozoology and Immunology. We were immediately faced with the question what should be the scope of instruction to dental students. We cannot say that we have found a wholly satisfactory answer. It may be of interest to give some of the ideas which have influenced us in giving the instruction this year. H- Q, I u ll In ,fe-xg' I Ei' ill , , If . J.

M. .Ar 1 l .11 .xx- il' 11 f 1 1 P-J' ' . of the present session of a greater number of dental students than those already i If provided for, has entailed additions to the staff and some new problems of organi- M1 if zation. The proper coordination of the work of the anatomical department with NW! that of the other departments of the Dental College, is being carefully considered ' l-Hi ll ' at the present time, as it will be for some years to come. The dental students have already profited immensely by direct access to anatomical material, which hitherto has been denied to the separate dental colleges ll I1 , in the State, and the course they receive now differs little from that taken by their Q medical fellow-students. Since the physiology and pathology of the human body X can only be taught as a whole, the dissection of the entire body constitutes a neces- I , sary prerequisite to the work of both of these departments. The work in dentistry ll 'I 1111 l 1 during the first two years of the course promises, therefore, to be as broadly scien. t Iq,yl,al111 RJ! tiiic as thatlnow given in medicine. This should not only provide a better basis for 1 lm qi the more highly specialized work of the third and fourth years, but will open a 1,Qj1Nl wider horizon for original thought and research in the years following graduation. izlml 115115 1 , 1 Xi 111 lilfll 111 'ill 1 11 11 1 il J 1 Qi M51 ami 11 , dj , , FLEX IQ - - 1411 ,411 lx 1: l fl lllx ll , , 1 ll i l l li l 11 I ,l ll ll 1, 1 U 1 11 ll 1 X lf LM M Ri! it! 1' Q 1 ills T11 fi W1 1 K gl :E-Y?

EA-E Q r g ! STE , . :og Three primary considerations present themselves--first the cultural and general science side of the subject second the degree to which students should receive the same instruction as medical students third how far should the prac- tical application be left to the clinical courses in succeeding years What might be termed the general cultural side would comprise a general consideration of the role of micro-organisms in nature What is the distribution of micro-organisms in nature how far are they essential to our well being how far are they harmful to plants to the lower ani- mals and to man? With the time available only the most general idea of these subjects can be developed as for instance the role of microbes in the natural nitrogen cycle in food production such as the souring of cream for making butter etc Likewise the question of the infectious diseases of plants and of the lower animals could only be touched upon enough to show their great importance For instance a general idea of tick fever of cattle is important from the historical standpoint as it was the first disease shown to be transmitted by insects Although the above phases do not touch directly on dental and medical practice they may have an important direct bearing in so far as they affect food production. For instance anything induencing the price of food influences nutrition and nutrition influences body growth and dentition. In the teaching of bacteriology and protozoology there is a question which applies both to the teaching of dental and of medical students. How much time should be devoted to general biological aspects, to morphology and to physiolog- ical activities as a basis of classification, nomenclature, etc.? Should we plunge at once into the study ofthe pathogenic forms in the hope that the student would thus get a suHicient idea of the systematic side of the subject? We do not believe that this would serve and still we can hardly spare the time to study a sufficient number of types of microbes for anything approaching an adequate general bio- logical survey. We hope that the growing appreciation of the importance of micro-organisms in all the phases of life will result in all universities offering general courses as a separate subject the same as they now offer other courses in other special phases of biological science. If such instruction were made a requisite in pre-dental educa- tion, and the student came to us with a general knowledge of the importance of micro-organisms in nature, with a foundation as to the technical fundamentals of pure culture isolation and the methods of biological study, etc., we should be saved the questions we have raised in these regards. The sooner this hope is realized the better for dental and medical education. 2: si 5 E5-E is Eg? E E 3 Z E23 542 212 E---5 ? 1 ? r ..

There are roughly three sets of opinions being argued today by ' their proponents. First, dentistry should be a post-graduate specialty of medicineg ' second the instruction in the fundamental sciences should be alike for both med- t-- ical and dental students' third the fundamentals should be similarly taught but -f the courses should differ in glving the major time and emphasis and time to the - phases immediately applicable in clinical dentistry f :SE ' 2 '- -' ' Vi all i s ali lm '-um mul -'---- - uw - --- In 'l jl' 'IW' Ill jll lI'lI ' 1 'rl .lf '21 -f l41l . is
