Coda's Accreditation Of Graduate Dental Anesthesiology Programs: A Benefit To All Dental Education

摘要

In a 1985 editorial published in Anesthesia Progress, Dr. Ted Jastak advocated for the need for and the critical importance of acquiring accreditation for graduate dental anesthesiology programs.1 He described the “clout” that is afforded training programs that receive formal accreditation. He explained that the survival of hospital-based dental anesthesia programs and the maintenance of privileges that we enjoy as dentist anesthesiologists would require the authorized approval obtained through an officially recognized accreditation process.
