• Resumen

  • The article aims to identify some of the challenges for future training of orthodontics and subsequently the delivery of orthodontic care. Clearly, in any aspect of future prediction, the precision is simply that of an art. However, it is hoped that some of the reported bibliography will allow those that wish to, the opportunity to look further. The global economy is undergoing a significant period of rationalization and luxury items such as Orthodontics may become less publicly funded. In order to maintain the specialty as one in which clinicians are appropriately trained, there needs to be a reconsideration of the way in which education is delivered and assessment assured. This presentation will identify possible challenges and identify a strategy to consider, construct and deliver a rational way forward in a positive way that ensures that the strengths of how the profession has developed are maintained.
