Innovative Simodont Virtual Simulation System Enhances Preclinical Teaching of Dental Skills

Posted: December 15, 2024
The study investigated the effectiveness of the Simodont virtual simulation system in preclinical teaching of access and coronal cavity preparation for dental undergraduate students. Results showed that students trained with the virtual simulation system alongside the conventional phantom-simulator system demonstrated significantly improved skills compared to baseline. The virtual simulation system provided benefits such as repeatability, multi-dimensionality, and enhanced attention to detail. While acknowledging the need for improvements, incorporating the Simodont system with traditional training significantly enhanced teaching effectiveness for access and coronal cavity preparation.
