Introduction: In recent years, a lot of attention has been given to the quality of dental education in most countries. Despite major differences among educational systems in different countries around the world, there is a similar view of dental-education schedule. The aim of this study was to evaluate the level of similarity between present curriculum and accomplished activities in the operative dentistry department of Yazd dental college from 2012 to 2013.
Materials & Methods: In this cross-sectional study, information about different operative methods undertaken by students during internship was extracted from their requirement papers. The collected data was analyzed by SPSS 17 using ANOVA and T-test.
Results: In the present study, 49 requirement papers in practical operative dentistry 2 course, 57 requirement papers in practical operative dentistry 3 and 50 requirement papers in practical operative dentistry 4 course were evaluated. In practical operative dentistry 2 course, class I cavity preparations had 8.2% compatibility to the curriculum and class II had no compatibility. In practical operative dentistry 3 course, class I preparations had 22.8% and class II preparations reported 35.1% compatibility ,but in class III and V cavity prepations, none of the student had done in accordance with curriculum.
