Resumen de A comparison of current Orthodontic Board examinations
Five orthodontic clinical Board examinations were systematically compared. An attempt was made to critically evaluate the procedures, characteristics and requirements of these examinations. Many similarities were found and the differences found between Boards may be due to differences in socio-political goals of the professional orthodontic societies organizing the examinations. By setting a high standard of clinical treatment as a basic goal, all Boards aim to raise the overall quality of clinical performance.
