Why University of British Columbia Faculty of Dentistry?
What aspects of UBC Dentistry's problem-based learning curriculum appeal to your learning style?
British Columbia is experiencing challenges with dental workforce shortages, particularly in rural areas. The new Health Professions and Occupations Act may inadvertently create additional barriers for internationally trained dentists seeking to practice in BC. Consider the tension between maintaining professional standards and addressing urgent access needs. How should BC approach credential recognition for foreign-trained dentists in the context of these competing priorities?
What role should traditional or indigenous healing practices play in modern healthcare systems?
You are a dentist in private practice. A patient needs $15,000 in dental work but can only afford $800 for extractions. Extractions solve immediate pain but cause long-term problems. What do you do?
How many rubber ducks would it take to fill this room?
Tell me about a time you failed.
How does UBC Dentistry's emphasis on interprofessional education align with your career goals?
British Columbia is implementing the Health Professions and Occupations Act, which introduces significant regulatory changes affecting all health professionals, including dentists. The BC Dental Association has expressed concerns that these new complex regulations may deter skilled dentists from coming to or remaining in BC, potentially exacerbating access issues in rural and underserved areas. How should the balance between professional regulation and healthcare accessibility be approached in BC's context of existing dental shortages?
The federal Canadian Dental Care Plan is being implemented across Canada, but British Columbia's unique fee structure and the fact that BC dentists are not required to follow the provincial fee guide creates potential complications. Should BC dentists be ethically obligated to participate in federal programs even when reimbursement rates may not align with their practice costs?
