ABP Section C Examination consists of three, highly objective, 20-minute oral examinations that are completed during a one-hour period. The scenarios are based on patient treatment and clinical presentations supplied by the ABP.
Each scenario consists of four sections: (1) diagnosis, (2) treatment planning, (3) treatment, and (4) prognosis, outcomes, and maintenance plan. Candidates are assessed based on the combined performance in all three examinations. Two examiners evaluate responses for each clinically related scenario presented to the candidate using predetermined questions structured to evaluate the candidate’s depth and breadth of knowledge in prosthodontics and related disciplines.
