Background/Objectives: This study evaluates the level of knowledge among dental students regarding infection prevention and control measures in dental practice. Methods: A total of 225 students from the Medical University of Plovdiv participated in an anonymous survey between November 2024 and March 2025. The survey assessed knowledge about epidemiological factors, disinfection protocols, and procedures for infection prevention and control. Results: The survey results revealed that while most students demonstrated a high level of knowledge of the importance of protective equipment and impression disinfection, a few students reported incorrect or inconsistent practices. Gender differences were observed in adherence to disinfection procedures. Conclusions: The findings highlight the need for enhanced training in infection control within dental curricula to ensure safe clinical practice and minimize cross-infection risks.
