The objective of the present study was to determine the Dental students’ Knowledge in Isfahan about Oral cancer and the comparison of the level of students' Knowledge in different years of education. Materials and Methods: The present study was a cross-sectional-analytical one conducted in 2013. The population of study included the Dental students of private and state University of Isfahan which 255 students were randomly selected. The data were collected using questionnaire and were then analyzed using SPSS software program and Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney. Results: From private and public dental schools in Isfahan, 56% and 44% of Dental students were involved. Regarding performing routine clinical oral examination, 81% of the participants answered positively, which showed no significant difference among the years of education of the participants (P=0. 116). Regarding the examination of patients with oral lesions, 46% of them answered positively, which the difference between the years of education was highly significant (P≤ 0. 001).
