For the first part of the study (mock examination), the accuracy of periodontal diagnosis served as the study's primary outcome, and the duration of the examination was the secondary outcome. For the second (chairside) part of the study, the diagnostic accuracy of primary periodontal conditions served as the primary outcome. The diagnostic accuracy of secondary periodontal conditions and the duration of time needed to diagnose these conditions served as secondary outcomes. Periodontal conditions were stratified into primary and secondary diagnoses. Primary conditions included dental biofilm-induced periodontitis2. Secondary diagnoses included periodontitis as a manifestation of systemic diseases24, tooth- and prosthesis-related factors25, traumatic occlusal forces26, periodontal abscess27, and endodontic-periodontal lesions27.
