Portuguese term or phrase: calibração, dentista calibrado
Dessa forma, os acadêmicos de odontologia no 4º período são treinados para o levantamento epidemiológico em saúde bucal e uma dessa etapa é a
calibração. A calibração consiste na padronização de códigos critérios diagnósticos assim como a familiarização dos participantes do estudo (examinadores, anotadores, monitores) com
o desenvolvimento do levantamento em campo.

Os exames clínicos foram realizados nas unidades escolares por um cirurgião-dentista calibrado.

I do not think "calibration/calibrated" is correct because this term only appears in papers written by Brazilians, Argentinians, Spanish, etc.

TYVM for your help. :)

Explanation:
Eu não usaria um só termo para traduzir "calibração" (substantivo) e "calibrado" (adjetivo). No contexto, parecem significar coisas diversas.

Asker: O primeiro texto não está muito claro mas é a definição de calibração, que é um treinamento dado a alguém para essa pessoa desempenhar uma certa tarefa - no meu texto analisar raios-X procurando uma certa caracteristica (calcificação de um ligamento).

Explanation:
O termo aparece em sites de outros países. O abaixo é do Canadá.

Outcomes assessment: To answer the first research question, calibrated dentists from outside of Eeyou Istchee will do dental examinations for children at 30+3 months of age. Mothers will complete questionnaires to answer the secondary questions. The primary statistical analysis will be a comparison of caries prevalence in intervention and control groups, using a permutation test with test statistic equal to the difference between caries prevalences in the two groups.

Methods: all patients from three age cohorts (born 1975–1977) who had received one or more tunnel restorations at least 3years earlier, at the public dental clinic in Kongsberg and a neighboring clinic in Numedal, were examined clinically and radiographically by two calibrated dentists. Individuals with two or more filled surfaces per year were classified as “caries active”. The statistical analyses consisted of non-parametric Kaplan–Meyer estimates of the survival function, and rank tests for associations to the longevity data and the background variables.

Asker: Thank you very much for your help Marlene. Unfortunately i can't open the first site and the second paper is from Norwegian authors. There must be another term in English for "calibrado."
