VOXEL-MAN Dental is fully integrated with a dental curriculum. At any time, teeth may be inspected from all sides, magnified as desired, and even be shown as cross-sectional images. ![]() Instruments provided include a selection of high and low speed burs of different shapes which are controlled by a foot pedal, as well as a dental mirror. With VOXEL-MAN Dental, you can actually feel the subtle differences between enamel, dentin, pulp, or carious tissue. The dental handpiece is represented by a haptic device which can be moved in three dimensions and provides a very life-like sense of touch. The high resolution tooth models were derived from real teeth by microtomography. In VOXEL-MAN Dental, teeth and instruments are modeled inside a computer and visualized on a 3D screen. An objective assessment of the student’s skills and progress is hardly possible. Furthermore, the teeth usually have no pathologies, such that training is limited to standard preparations. ![]() These are made all of one material, making it impossible for a dental student to develop a realistic feel for the different dental tissues. With its striking new features, VOXEL-MAN Dental greatly improves quality and cost-effectiveness in pre-clinical training-and beyond.Īt present, pre-clinical dental training is mostly based on drilling resin tooth models. Students are working on simulated patient cases with a look and feel close to a real procedure, training both their manual dexterity and problem solving skills. VOXEL-MAN Dental is a new kind of dental simulator, based on virtual reality technology.
