Résumé

Glasgow Dental School was set up in 1879, and since that time, dental education has been changing and evolving into the current landscape we recognise today. Changes in demographics and numbers of dental students have led to a more diverse community of students from wide and varied backgrounds. The years have also seen the development of educational theory and practice, and in more recent times, the introduction and expansion of digital and technology-enhanced learning and teaching have revolutionised the delivery of the dental curriculum. One of the most notable changes in the dental programme is the incorporation of student support, health and wellbeing. The modern dental course takes a more holistic approach to education, with the provision of training in generic and life skills, as well as the clinical skills required in an ever-expanding field. The demands and pressures of studying dentistry in the setting of modern, fast-paced life cannot be underestimated and the course must be ever-changing to reflect this. However, the one thing that has not changed is the enduring Glasgow Dental School community.
