Dr. Peter Yaman, Chair ADLEX Exam Committee - Dental Examination Overview
Dr. Yaman presented the report of the Examination Committee meeting which was held on Friday November 5, 2010. The following recommendations were made by the examination committee:
· The Dental Examination Committee is recommending to the ADEX House of Representatives to eliminate the probing portion of the dental periodontal examination. It was further recommended that the points that were allowed for the probing portion of the dental periodontal examination should be redistributed so that it will end up being a neutral scoring change.
· The Dental Examination Committee is recommending to the ADEX House of Representative that candidates be allowed to select among a class III composite, and one of the following, a class II traditional composite, a class II composite slot preparation, a class II amalgam. The candidate would select two unique selections to include one anterior and one selection from the posteriors. Allow selection by candidate of class III composite, class II traditional composite, class II slot preparation, class II amalgam, but choose one anterior and one posterior.
· The Dental Examination Committee is recommending to the ADEX House of Representatives that anonymous assignments of lesions be implemented for the 2011-2012 examination. The anonymous assignment would require two examiners to agree on the assignment or rejection, and a third would not be called unless necessary. Blood pressure reading on patients will be observed by CFE and the patients will be rejected if outside the patient acceptance criteria. The Exam Committee Chair will appoint a subcommittee of testing agency representatives, NERB, Nevada and any other participating testing agency to recommend the administrative logistics of the implementation.
· The Dental Examination Committee is recommending to the ADEX House of Representatives that Dr. Klein and NERB, Nevada and Florida test administrators look at the inter-examiner agreement on critical deficiencies and recheck the data.
· The Dental Examination Committee is recommending to the ADEX House of Representatives to have ADEX incorporate criteria with other testing agencies.
· The Dental Examination Committee is recommending to the ADEX House of Representatives that final lesions be assigned two hours before the conclusion of the restorative examination.
· The Dental Examination Committee is recommending to the ADEX House of Representatives that penalty of 10 points be assessed if the rubber dam is not in place at the start of the endodontic procedure.
The next Examination Committee meeting will be November 4 - 5, 2011.
