Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate observer agreement among experienced and inexperienced students in the replacement decision of amalgam restorations on bite-wing radiographs. The observer agreement among faculty members and these students were also examined. Materials and Methods: Two faculty members, ten experienced and ten inexperienced students were enrolled in the study. Occlusal amalgam restorations of 70 molar teeth on 40 bite-wing radiographs were evaluated by the participants. The replacement decisions and the reasons were recorded. Results: The observer agreements of experienced and inexperienced students were 'poor' to 'moderate'. The observer agreement of faculty members and experienced students was 'slight to 'moderate'. The observer agreement of faculty members and inexperienced students was 'poor' to 'fair'. Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that the students were not in agreement and they were not successful in the evaluation of amalgam restorations, replacement decisions and secondary caries diagnosis on bite-wing radiographs. Therefore, this issue should be stressed in clinical education programs.

Özet

Amaç: Çalışmanın amaci, deneyimli ve deneyimsiz öğrencilerin bite-wing radyografilerde okluzal amalgam restorasyonların yenilenmesi konusunda gözlemci karar birligini incelemekti. Ayrıca deneyimli ve deneyimsiz öğrencilerle öğretim üyeleri arasindaki karar birliği de incelendi. Gereç ve Yöntem: çalışmaya, deneyimli ve deneyimsiz onar öğrenci ve iki öğretim üyesi katildi. 40 adet bite-wing radyografideki 70 adet molar dişte bulunan okluzal amalgam restorasyon öğrenciler ve öğretim üyeleri tarafından değerlendirildi. Dolgunun yenilenip yenilenmeyeceği, yenilenecekse bunun nedenleri kaydedildi. Bulgular: Deneyimli ve deneyimsiz öğrencilerin karar birliğini gösteren kappa degerleri 'kötü' ile 'orta' arasinda değişmekteydi. Deneyimli öğrencilerle öğretim üyeleri arasindaki uyum "önemsiz' ile 'orta' arasinda değişmekteydi. Deneyimsiz öğrenciler ile öğretim üyeleri arasindaki uyum 'kötü' ile 'fena degil' arasinda değişmekteydi. Sonuç: Bu çalışmanın sonuçları öğrencilerin bite-wing radyografilerde amalgam dolguların değerlendirilmesi, dolgu yenileme kriterleri ve sekonder çürük teşhisi konusunda başarılı ve uyumlu olmadıklarını göstermektedir, Bu nedenle klinik eğitim programlarında bu konuya ağırlık verilmesi gerektiği ortaya çıkmaktadır.
