Reviewer 2 Report
Thank you for the opportunity to review this article.
It is an important issue to every student and active dentist, but this article needs a serious improvement in order to meet publishing standards.
First, language must be improved significantly. It needs to written in professional language and not like a narrative story.
The abstract needs to be restructured to get scientific outline.
It is useless to mention all the time the three parts of the questionnaire. You should find a way to somehow make a flowing connection between the section and interaction between the results.
Conclusion should be more coherent and understandable.
