Virtual and augmented reality technologies represent the next step towards the formation or receiving of medical education. According to educational standards, students at the undergraduate level are not allowed independent clinical work. However, constant training on standardized patients can lead to memorization of situations that are divorced from real life. The complexity of the implementation of the educational process in the discipline “local anesthesia in dentistry” is largely due to the lack of simulators with an integrated rating scale, as well as the lack of feedback from the patient. The purpose of this work is to update information on modern methods of simulation training in dentistry on the profile “Local anesthesia”. Materials and methods. For this review article, a search was carried out for both abstracts and full-text articles in the PubMed, Google Scholar and Russian Science Citation Index (based on Web of Science). Conclusions. A definite advantage of virtual reality over augmented reality is shown, where simulators provide opportunities for interactive, standardized learning, objectification of the assessment of students’ actions, involve students in an independent learning process, significantly reduce the cost of training and contribute to a better formation of the practical skills of the future doctor. |
