RESULTS: Most students found prosthodontics an interesting subject (82%). On enquiring about the level of difficulty of prosthodontics compared to other dental clinical subjects, 56.9% of students responded negatively. The majority were satisfied with the content (79.1%), delivery, and pace of the lectures (78.2%).85.4% of students reported lecture material was easy to follow and satisfactory. The highly reported useful method for learning and understanding prosthodontics was PowerPoint slides 69%, followed by group discussion 52.70%.MCQs as the mode of assessment reported positive by 75.70%, whereas 77.4% of students want to have an integrated teaching method.
