The study aimed to evaluate the clinical conduct of dental undergraduate students regarding unsatisfactory Class II composite restorations with doubtful prognosis, in order to detect their difficulties and to improve learning methods using a Moodle online platform. A total of 65 sixth semester students were enrolled, they were attending Operative-Restorative Dentistry discipline and received previous theoretical training on restorations evaluation according FDI (World Dental Federation) criteria and randomly selected as volunteers. Data was collected using a questionnaire available on a specific online Moodle platform. Students analyzed 22 digital images of class II composite restorations observing aesthetic parameters (i.e., surface gloss, surface and marginal staining, color matching and translucency), anatomical aesthetic form, functional parameters (i.e., restoration fracture and retention, marginal adaptation, proximal anatomical shape/contour) and biological parameters (i.e., recurrence of caries and tooth integrity). The maximum individual score for correct answers was established as 10 points.  Immediate feedback was provided allowing students to check the appropriate responses once the questionnaire was finished. The average of correct answers was 6.3 (0,7 standard deviation). Graduation students present a considerable high difficulty to determine the clinical success of composite restorations. The proposed new teaching/learning methodology enhances the visual experience and the critical contributes to accelerate the learning curve on this topic.
