- Abstract
Psychosomatic and behavioural medicine have a long tradition in Hungary. In this paper, we highlight the possibilities of teaching behavioural medicine and behavioural science in the medical and dental curricula, particularly in the field of health promotion and prevention. There are a number of possibilities for dentists in the fields of behavioural science in both research and health policy. There is a need for closer integration of teaching, research and health policy in both general medicine and dentistry, and both doctors and dentists must approach their patients in a holistic way.
