Dentistry is a profession with continual changes and explosion of knowledge and technology. Consequently, dental treatment and care are unceasingly advancing. Some medical educators contrast medical education to running a bakery (Shaughnessy & Slawson, 1999). Professors have students stock their empty shelves with new loaves of knowledge. We tell our students what bread to stock and what to do with it. It is we, professors, who do all the heavy lifting, i.e. the actual learning. As a result, students become good at stocking already-made-knowledge on the designated shelves. These students can perform well on tests at school. However in their professional pathways, they may neither produce bread by themselves, nor stock it by themselves any more without spoon-feeding instructions. These pitfalls would threaten patients'safety. It is thus imperative for dental professionals to be life-long learners.
