Interdisciplinary tutorial. Skills lab training in oral health as a strategy for promoting interdisciplinary skills

The interdisciplinary student tutorial equipped medical and dentistry students with pertinent interdisciplinary competencies drawn from the medical and dental learning objectives catalogues on oral health topics, thereby raising awareness of their future relevance in the context of medical and dental practice. Both the student tutors and the students participating in the tutorial benefited from the educational approaches delineated as part of the study. Other medical skills laboratory teams may use and adapt these approaches.
