    Abstract

    A national consortium for dental primary care in Scotland has been formed as a result of integrated planning by groups involved in managing and delivering postgraduate dental education in Scotland. In 1998 a partnership was formed with representatives from the Scottish Council for Postgraduate Medical and Dental Education (SCPMDE) and the three Scottish dental institutions at Dundee, Edinburgh and Glasgow Universities. The principal aim of the Consortium is to promote evidence-based dental care through postgraduate education and research. The activities of the Consortium will provide a broadly based adjunct to current postgraduate provision with partner institutions contributing in different ways. Since its inception the Consortium has focused on two main areas: 

    ‘Higher Training’ for Primary Care. 

    Scottish Dental Practice Based Research Network.
