[Dentist's opinion about their dental education in Nijmegen, the Netherlands from 1990-1997].

A questionnaire was sent to 328 dentists graduated from the University of Nijmegen in the period 1990-1998, to ask their opinion concerning the way they were prepared by dental education for their professional career. Comparison with similar data from Amsterdam Academic Centre for Dentistry has been carried out. The results show unanimity among graduates that they have been adequately prepared for the requirements in general dental practice as far as knowledge is concerned related to cariology, periodontology, crown and bridgework and dental radiology.
