This article was designed to elucidate the current status of dental and orthodontic education in the European and American countries by a questionnaire survey through internet. In Europe, the size of orthodontic society and the number of orthodontic department or dental school are small when compared to those in USA. In Europe and South America, it takes 5 to 6 years to complete undergraduate dental education for dentist. Meanwhile, in Canada and USA, dental school system has been developed, requiring 8-year education to become dentist. For orthodontic specialists, in general, it takes 3 years on average in European and American countries with an exception of 4-year training in Switzerland. Most societies in European and American countries have two important issues such as inappropriate orthodontic treatment and incorrect use of aligners by general practitioners. The most important strategy is to appeal the public that orthodontic treatment should be executed by orthodontic specialists. In conclusion, it is shown that the educational systems for dentist and orthodontist have well been developed in every country in the world, although the strength is somewhat different from country to country.

Northern State

About twenty years ago I became the library director at a small state college in a far-northern state, known mostly for liberal social stances even among its conservative electorate. So I was taken aback when the head of computing recommended I install the same filtering software used in the public school system to protect students from getting into “mischief” online. College students are taking their first steps into adulthood, I explained when declining his offer, and they should get into mischief. They should be testing their boundaries, finding out the world is much different than the dinner conversations they grew up with surrounded by people whose main goal was protecting them.

Japanese Schools

There is an abundance of official and semi-official reports of schools for dependent people in various parts of the world which emphasize the administrator's picture of the school system: the value and nature of the physical plant, aims, curriculum, enrollment and attendance, etc. However all actual educational systems include two major parties: the teachers and the taught. The latter are all too often ignored. Our purpose in this paper therefore will be to discuss the operation of the former Japanese school system for the natives of Truk, Caroline Islands, viewed as the product of an interaction between two major forces: the official government policy and the native culture.
