Abstract :
In recent years, technology has been widely
used in dental and medical education for both learning
and training. The traditional approach to dental skills
training has drawbacks in terms of cost, availability,
lack of real‑world cases, with time restraints, clinical
supervision, and the funding of raw materials such as
real and plastic teeth. The introduction of dental haptics
opens the door to a more realistic clinical experience
that can be free from the previous constraints and also
there is increased effectiveness in comparison with
traditional teaching techniques, more efficient learning,
objective and reproducible feedback, unlimited training
hours, and enhanced cost-effectiveness for teaching
establishments.
Keywords :
Dental education, Haptics, Virtual reality.
