Objective: We examined similar names for 9 basic dental hygiene subjects, aiming to standardize for easier student comprehension and course selection at the start of the semester. Methods: The study examined 9 basic subjects across 54 dental hygiene universities with similar names, from Sep-Dec 2023. Data was collected from university websites and non-exposed universities were investigated through requests for cooperation. Universities with the most openings for each subject were compared and analyzed. Results: A survey on universities offering similar basic subjects identified 14 names for oral health education, 120 universities per subject. For oral anatomy, there were 12 names in 91 schools, oral physiology had 12 in 90, oral pathology had 7 in 84, oral microbiology had 17 in 83, oral tissue embryology had 14 in 83, health care laws had 14 in 79, oral health statistics had 15 in 62, and oral health administration had 5 in 14. Conclusion: The names of similar subjects to basic university subjects ranged from as small as 5 to as many as 17. I hope that basic data will be used to minimize or standardize learning, enabling beneficiaries to quickly understand new subjects and register for courses at the beginning of the semester, rather than relying on instructors.
