Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate undergraduate students’ medium-term knowledge retention after a learning activity related to caries lesions detection. This study is part of the IuSTC multicenter study. Last-years dental students were invited to participate and were exposed to the teaching activity. Their knowledge retention after 1.5 year was assessed. Theoretical and practical tests (scored 0 to 10) were prepared to evaluate knowledge, abilities and attitudes The scores were set as outcomes. Multilevel regression analyses were used to assess the association between students’ performance and his/her perception about the importance of such learning activity in curriculum. Particularities related to students’ performance in specific topics and types of evaluations were also explored. 302 students participated. On average, students achieved 6.68 (SD=1.88) in theoretical and 5.5 (SD=2.27) in practical assessment. Student’s perception was associated with their performance. In theoretical test, students performed worse (21% of correct answers) in linking clinical and histological condition or justifying clinical decision-making for inactive lesions (36% of correct answers). In the practical test, 70-90% demonstrated ability to detect, assess activity and make the decision about management of initial or severe lesions, while 50% of students could assess adequately moderate caries lesions and only 32% demonstrated correct attitude related to their management. Undergraduate students’ knowledge retention related to the detection of caries lesions is moderate in a medium-term analysis. It is noted that for some topics (e.g. not related to practice/justification of attitudes), the students’ performance tends to be worse.
