Virtual reality training for dental student emergency skills
Part of Ear, nose & throat, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests whether a virtual reality (VR) tool helps dental students learn how to handle medical emergencies better. If you are a 4th year dental student at ACTA, you may be able to join and practice these skills in a realistic, safe VR environment.
