One pedagogical approach that can be used is active learning. Flipped classroom is a method that has been shown to improve deeper conceptual understanding. In an online setting, the method saves travel, time, and costs. To our knowledge, flipped classroom is rarely used in continuing professional education. This study in general dentistry explored experiences of an online flipped classroom course in continuing professional development.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Materials and Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Fifteen dental hygienists, clinically active in general dental care, were interviewed. They were recruited from an online course on the latest classification system for periodontal diseases. The course had been conducted using an active learning and flipped classroom model. The interviews were semi\u2010structured. Data were extracted using qualitative content analysis.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The experiences of the dental hygienists could be summarized in three themes: Stimulation of knowledge gain through self\u2010paced studies, The ease of virtual networking among colleagues, and Fostering of direct practical application through collaboration.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>New and emerging communication technology seems to open new possibilities for continuing professional development in general dentistry. Study participants felt that, in an online environment, mixing asynchronous and synchronous communication in a flipped classroom model facilitated learning in continuing professional development. Online active learning seems to work well in continuous professional development in general dentistry. After the course, the participating dental hygienists stated that they were able to use their new knowledge clinically and felt confident doing so.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/eje.13013","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,24]],"date-time":"2024-04-24T07:28:55Z","timestamp":1713943735000},"page":"825-832","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Continuing professional development in general dentistry\u2014experiences of an online flipped classroom"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"28","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0006-0590-7631","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Emelie","family":"Stenberg","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oral Health, Faculty of Odontology Malm\u00f6 University  Malm\u00f6 Sweden"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9449-9073","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Aleksandar","family":"Milosavljevic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Periodontology, Faculty of Odontology Malm\u00f6 University  Malm\u00f6 Sweden"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6337-4988","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Bengt","family":"G\u00f6trick","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orofacial Medicine, Faculty of Odontology Malm\u00f6 University  Malm\u00f6 Sweden"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5798-2418","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nina","family":"Lundegren","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oral Diagnostics, Faculty of Odontology Malm\u00f6 University  Malm\u00f6 Sweden"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/eje.12045"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/idh.12431"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmjopen-2019-032781"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"National Health Service.The Topol review \u2013 preparing the healthcare workforce to deliver the digital future.2019;https:\/\/topol.hee.nhs.uk\/.
