Dental students' reflections about long ‐term care experiences through an existing model of oral health

ConclusionsThe nature of most students' reflective thinking within a long‐term care experience showed to be related to an existing model of oral health. This model can help to give meaning to the dental geriatric experience of an undergraduate curriculum. Such experience has been instrumental in overcoming potential misconceptions about long‐term care and geriatric dentistry.
