The Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) is used to detect and intervene in the students’ lack of confidence in a simulated clinical condition. The OSCE assesses competences, clinical skills, knowledge, attitude, communication, and professionalism, being considered an important tool in the teaching-learning process. This context raised the need to implement the OSCE clinical competence assessment. The objective of the study was to assess the dentistry student’s perception of the OSCE method and its impact on their academic training. This study included thirty-four senior students. The data were collected using a multiple-choice questionnaire (“disagree”, “agree”, “partially agree”, “indifferent”) voluntarily answered. The chi-square test was used to analyze the data by comparing the answers of four OSCE methodology applications during the year, with a 95% (p <0.05) significance level. The difference was also significant regarding the same question in the last assessment (93.1%, p = 0.017). As for the method having contributed to their future professional practice, 93.1% (p = 0.042) of the students agreed in the last assessment of the year. Based on the analysis of questionnaire answers in the four bimesters, we concluded that the perception of the students attending the 5th year of dentistry at Positivo University is that the implementation of the OSCE method was well accepted and positive, since most of the answers indicated that the method significantly contributed to their training and provided learning opportunities.Downloads
