A survey was conducted to assess the knowledge of 30 oral hygiene (OH I & II) and 79 dental students (BCHD III & VI) on HIV infection and AIDS. A questionnaire consisting of twenty-nine questions based on the 'agree-disagree' format was prepared for this study. Clinical slides were projected to assess students' ability to identify oral manifestations of HIV infection. Most students agreed that HIV-sero-positive people were entitled to the same dignity and respect as those who were suffering from other illnesses. Students were concerned about treating sero-positive patients. They would preferably receive training in the management of these patients in a controlled environment. They had a poor perception of the risk of infection following needle-stick injury and whether HIV could be transmitted through contact with saliva. Most students felt that they had insufficient lectures on HIV/AIDS and had practically no clinical exposure to HIV-sero-positive patients.
一项调查旨在评估30名口腔卫生专业学生（口腔卫生I和II年级）和79名牙科学生（牙医学士III和VI年级）对艾滋病毒感染和艾滋病的了解情况。本研究编制了一份由29个基于“同意-不同意”格式的问题组成的问卷。通过放映临床幻灯片来评估学生识别艾滋病毒感染口腔表现的能力。大多数学生认为，艾滋病毒血清呈阳性者应享有与其他疾病患者相同的尊严和尊重。学生们对治疗血清呈阳性的患者表示担忧。他们更希望能在可控环境中接受针对这些患者管理的培训。他们对针刺伤后感染风险以及艾滋病毒是否可通过唾液传播的认知较差。大多数学生觉得他们关于艾滋病毒/艾滋病的讲座不足，且几乎没有临床接触艾滋病毒血清呈阳性患者的机会。
