Dental VR application for dental training

In the real world of medical training & clinical conditions, learning situations is multi-dimensional. Doctors derive clinical data from a variety of procedures, and assemble such complex information to provide the most appropriate care for patients. In this paper, we describe a collaboration project between NUS and Temasek Polytechnic staff and student joint project on a VR application for visualising dental Oral Keratocyst (OKC). The main thrust and focus of this collaboration project is to build immersive macro- and micro-environments of the anatomic cyber-face and cyber-mouth models rich anatomic data and biological model information. Both the anatomic data and biological information are linked to specific and relevant sites within the cyber-face and cyber-mouth environments. The training system is currently under user evaluation by the Faculty of Dentistry at the National University of Singapore.
