Dental education now and in the future.

Abstract

Dentistry has consistently maintained a strong connection with technological advancements. Dental education has incorporated technology to enrich both teaching and learning experiences. This involves training students on the effective use of virtual reality simulations, digital imaging, 3D printing, and digital tools like intraoral scanners. These technologies offer students more interactive and immersive learning opportunities. Integrating these tools into the curriculum enhances diagnostic capabilities, treatment planning, and patient management.
