Abstract: This research described faculty and student perceptions regarding clinical supervision in a Philippine dental school. It identified the factors which affect faculty and student perceptions, and whether both perceptions are congruent. Forty-eight faculty and two hundred ninety-five students (N=343) of a private dental university in the Philippines answered the Maastricht Clinical Teaching Questionnaire (MCTQ). Survey results showed both faculty and students had positive assessments of clinical supervision, however, their ratings of the domains differed. The faculty had a significantly positive overall assessment than the students, according to the two-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test conducted. Two-tailed T-tests revealed that student perceptions were not affected by sex and year level. On the other hand, ANOVA revealed that faculty perceptions were affected by the number of years in teaching, with ‘experts’ having more positive ratings. There is a significant difference in faculty and student perceptions on clinical supervision. Faculty characteristic, specifically number of years in teaching, has a significant difference in faculty perception on clinical supervision.
