Procedures
Cariology preparations
Cariology preparations can be practiced on a large range of 3D models made from high-resolution micro-CT scans of extracted teeth
Crown and Bridge preparations
Many schools use Simodont to offer students crown and bridge training hours before moving on to practice on plastic teeth in the pre-clinic.
Dental anatomy
In the Dental Anatomy module students can familiarize themselves with tooth anatomy. A range of models is available for identification.
Endodontic preparations
Endodontic access cavity preparations can be practiced on 3D models made from high-resolution micro-CT scans of extracted teeth.
Manual dexterity training
In these exercises the goal is to remove a target volume, while removing as little as possible from the surrounding leeway (safety margin).
Patient specific preparations
With Simodont students can practice crown and bridge preparations for a specific patient prior to treating that patient in the clinic.
Pediatric preparations
Pediatric preparations such as pulpotomies can be practiced on primary dentition models made from high-resolution CT scans.
Implantology
The impantology cases are provided with a variation of guided and free-hand impantology drilling, and with and without the assistance of virtual tools.
Periodontics
The periodontics procedure in Simodont focuses on the basics of calculus detection, periodontal measurements and calculus removal.
