    A new endodontic review program significantly reduced diagnostic and treatment errors for dental students. This program improved clinical decision-making skills, leading to better patient outcomes in endodontic procedures.

    Area of Science:

    • Dental Education
    • Endodontics
    • Clinical Skills Training

    Background:

    • Repetitive endodontic errors are common among senior dental students.
    • A need exists for effective interventions to improve diagnostic and treatment accuracy in endodontics.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the effectiveness of a formal review program in reducing endodontic errors made by senior dental students.
    • To assess the impact of the program on diagnostic and treatment decision-making.

    Main Methods:

    • A review program was implemented, including slide-tape and written simulations of endodontic cases.
    • Senior dental students were required to successfully complete the program before undertaking clinical endodontic cases.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

    • Significant reductions in diagnostic errors were observed for both posterior (six categories) and anterior teeth (four of six categories).
    • Treatment errors also decreased significantly for posterior teeth (eight of 12 categories) and anterior teeth (five of 12 categories).

    Conclusions:

    • The formal endodontic review program effectively reduced diagnostic and treatment errors in senior dental students.
    • The program received favorable student feedback, indicating its value in enhancing endodontic skills.
