Objective: Although multisource feedback (MSF) has been medically reported, there are very few studies concerning MSF in dentistry. In addition, compared with undergraduate dental education, no standardized objective structured clinical examinations (OSCE) criteria in dental postgraduate clinical training for trainee dentists have yet been established. The present study comparatively examined MSF in work place-based assessment (WPBA) as formative evaluation and OSCE as summative evaluation to analyze and construct a clinical performance evaluation in dental postgraduate clinical training. Materials and Methods: The supervising dentist, the dental hygienist, and the receptionist evaluated MSF as formative evaluation and medical interviews for OSCE were administered to trainee dentists at the end of in dental postgraduate clinical training for trainee dentists. Results: A positive correlation was observed between the scores assigned by the supervising dentist and those assigned by the dental hygienist as well as between the scores assigned by the dentist and those assigned by the receptionist within the MSF (p
