Overview

Observational analysis evaluated occlusion knowledge in dental students, indicating more focus is needed on teaching concepts.

Key Points

  • Final-year dental students demonstrate better knowledge of complete denture occlusion than their fourth-year peers, strengthening educational approaches is necessary.
  • 69.0% of fourth-year students recognized monoplane occlusion, while 68.4% of final-year students identified lingualized occlusion as significant.
  • Data was collected from fourth-year and final-year dental students at Istanbul University using a questionnaire and statistical analysis software.
  • Improving occlusal education could enhance dental students' confidence and success in clinical practice.
