“…Dental preclinical training has changed extensively over the past decade with the advent of new training methods brought by VR-haptic technologies, new therapeutic strategies, and modified training-hour restrictions. 31 Despite this, the methods of preclinical education have remained largely unchanged in the form of in-person simulation-based didactics. Therefore, as dental educators, one of our major questions should be how to improve the undergraduates' learning and practicing in a hands-on preclinical setting.…”

Background The acquisition of manual skills is essential in preclinical dental training. Background music improves the learning of many manual skills, though we found no data on the consequences of background music on preclinical manual skills training of dental students. Objective The first aim of this project was to explore whether listening to slow background music could reduce the stress of students when learning how to perform cavity preparations and restorations in a simulation laboratory. The second aim of this study was to determine the impact of slow background music on the quality and time used during cavity preparation. Method We invited all of the 40 third‐year dental students to participate in the study, of whom 88% chose to anonymously fill in questionnaires on their subjective evaluations of the effects of slow background music on the stress or anxiety levels experienced during the course. Twenty‐four students further volunteered to participate in a cross‐over study on the impact of slow background music on the quality of and time used during cavity preparation. Results The overall satisfaction with the slow background music was high. In particular, the music reduced stress but also increased motivation to learn and practice. Communication in the classroom went well despite the music. Time use and quality of cavity preparation were enhanced. Conclusion This study lends support to the use of slow background music in preclinical cariology training, as it appeared to have helpful effects on dental skills education and practice.

ObjectivesTo evaluate the assessment scores of a novel digital training program versus traditional training in dental preclinical crown preparation.MethodsCrown preparations in two consecutive preclinical training sessions were retrospectively collected and assigned to three groups: traditional group (TG), scanning group (SG), and digital evaluation group (DG). Students in the TG (n = 20) were taught by conventional visual grading, while students in the SG (n = 25) received three‐dimensional feedback from digitally scanned preparations. All the SG students continued with supplementary digital evaluation and preparations were allocated into the DG (n = 25). Comparison of total scores between groups was investigated using independent samples t‐test and paired samples t‐test. Mann‒Whitney U‐test and Wilcoxon signed‐rank test were used to statistically analyze the differences in subdividing categories. The level of significance was p < 0.05. Questionnaires on the digital evaluation procedure were answered by students in DG.ResultsThe results showed a significant improvement (p < 0.01) in the total scores of DG than those of TG and SG, while there were no statistically significant differences between TG and SG. Scores of surface finish and undercut improved significantly in DG compared to TG and SG. The reduction scores of DG were significantly higher than those of SG. Students’ feedback indicated a positive perspective on the implementation of the novel digital evaluation technology.ConclusionsThese findings suggest that digital evaluation technology is useful for preclinical crown preparation training. Attention should also be paid to studying the optimal integration of digital dentistry into traditional dental curricula and its effects on students’ learning curves.
