The British and European Community recommendations for teaching orthodontics in the undergraduate curriculum from 1963 up to the present day are reviewed. 12 years experience of the course introduced in Belfast in 1984 is reviewed and some of the difficulties are identified. Modifications in the course to meet these difficulties are described.
