Comparative Analysis of Manual Dexterity of Dental Students at Ajman University following One Academic Year of Preclinical Training Sessions: A Longitudinal Cohort Study

Abstract: Objectives Dental students must complete two stages of training, namely, preclinical training on phantom head models and clinical training on actual patients to acquire the practical skills required by their Bachelor of Dental Surgery program.Our objectives are to evaluate the level of improvement of the manual skills obtained by third-year dental students after one full academic year of preclinical training courses using dexterity tests under direct and indirect vision and to compare the improvement among mal… Show more

“…Published data were not available for peripheral neuropathy indicators in vitamin B12 deficiency; hence, a sample size of 30 was targeted as has been recommended for feasibility studies ( 34 ). As reference, in university students, dexterity training demonstrated a detectable difference of 1.96 for PPT assembly scores (SD = 1.26 and 1.98), suggesting a sample size of 24 ( 35 ). Statistical analysis was conducted using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 28.0.…”
