Abstract

Background and Aims: The objective of the present study was to investigate KNOWLEDGE AND ATTITUDE of SENIOR DENTAL STUDENTS towards HIV/AIDS. Its result could help in promotion of education.Materials and Methods: This educational research was carried out in two state dental schools in Tehran. The SENIOR DENTAL STUDENTS in Tehran and Shaheed Beheshti dental schools were asked to fill in a self-administered questionnaire regarding their age, gender, parents’ job, KNOWLEDGE AND ATTITUDEs towards treatment of patients with HIV/AIDS in Autumn semester 2007. Fifty five dental students (83%) including 27% male and 73% female in Shaheed Beheshti and fifty five dental students (85%) including 34% male and 66% female in Tehran dental schools were participated. The score for KNOWLEDGE AND ATTITUDE of the students were calculated separately. The data were analyzed using Independent sample t test.Results: The mean percentage of KNOWLEDGE AND ATTITUDE scores were 76.5% (at range 1-3) and 50% (at range 1-5), respectively. Nearly all of the students believed that all patients should be considered as HIV positive in dental practice, while 49% preferred to refer HIV positive patients. KNOWLEDGE AND ATTITUDE of students were not significantly associated with the gender and knowing HIV positive person (P>0.05).Conclusion: There is a need to improve KNOWLEDGE AND ATTITUDEs of dental students towards HIV/AIDS. It is suggested to emphasize on this subject in dental schools curriculum in Iran.
