Résumé
The purpose of this study was to present a 5-year report about the outcomes of using a teaching tool that guides dental students through the thought process of the expert about how to assess the risk of rapid oral health deterioration (ROHD) among older adults and provide viable treatment alternatives. A teaching tool was previously developed using ROHD risk factors identified in the literature and the steps that experts apply in their treatment decision making, summarized in 10 questions. During 5 years, 188 senior dental students were introduced to the teaching tool and asked to use the 10-question set to present a case they have treated during their Geriatric and Special Needs Program. Two evaluators were asked to grade the students on each question. Students were graded "G" if they answered the question and grasped the principles behind it, "A" if they only answered the question, or "M" if they missed the question. Additionally, the students were given a form to grade the importance of and comment on the exercise. More than 75% of the students had an A or G for most questions, agreement between the 2 evaluators was above 85%, and students' performances improved during the 5-year period. Additionally, 94.4% of the students considered the teaching tool as important or very important for the general dentist. The vast majority of the students had an A or G grade, examiner agreement was high, and the students appreciated the importance of this teaching tool for the general dentist.
