Popis: Introduction: The World Workshop on the Classification of Periodontal and Peri-implant Diseases and Conditions introduced the 2018 Classification. Formulating periodontal diagnosis differs from clinician to clinician and depends on the expertise and competence of the clinician. We aimed to assess calibration levels of periodontal diagnosis based on the 2018 classification among senior-year dental interns at Batterjee Medical College in Saudi Arabia preparing for practice and subsequent graduation. Materials and Methods: In this preapproved study, 52 senior-year dental students received a two-hour presentation on the 2018 classification by a single teacher, followed by a preliminary exam. One week later, the students were subjected to 12 study cases demonstrating a variety of periodontal and peri-implant disorders with gold standard management, followed by a post-test.

Statistical significance was set at p
