SIMODONT

Simodont® Dental Trainer helps build students’ skills, insight and confidence before moving into the clinic. Simodont provides an effective learning and training environment for a range of dental procedures and serves as a ‘virtual reality phantom head’.

  • Applies sophisticated haptic technology used in flight simulators, adapted and tailored for medical simulation
  • Offers proven skill transfer from Simodont into the physical world, for example by training on virtual reality manual dexterity blocks
  • Provides a safe learning environment where students can experience and practice real-world patient scenarios
  • intra-oral scans (.STL files) can be imported and worked on so that students can practice repeatedly on their specific patient prior to treating that patient in the clinic
  • Tooth models are based on high resolution scans of actual teeth, featuring detailed anatomy, pathology and different material properties
  • Instructors can create and tailor training programs using the flexible software and model database
  • Simodont is installed and supported at over 80 dental schools around the world creating a large community
  • New features and functionalities are continuously developed together with dental schools
  • A cost effective system without the need for any consumables, extracted teeth, complex facility requirements or waste material handling
