“…Its use has become a widely debated topic among the medical community and has resulted in fertile ground for new types of research [ 3 ]. As a result, the health care sector and policy makers have been immediately able to realize the benefits of applying AR technologies, with education and training being noticeable applications of AR in medical settings [ 4 - 6 ]. However, since AR technologies enable learners to interact and visualize in 3D representations, medical professionals must have a vast amount of technological knowledge to efficiently adapt AR in practice [ 4 , 7 , 8 ].…”

“…Apart from the enormous benefits of AR for medical professionals, AR is also emerging as a useful guide for patient education and training, allowing physicians to clarify different surgical procedures and the functions of certain medications for patients and to explain new therapies in a more visual way [ 9 - 12 ]. Furthermore, AR can significantly improve a patient’s experience and advance knowledge on complex issues, and these benefits contribute and lead to better health outcomes [ 6 ].…”

Background Augmented reality (AR) is an interactive technology that uses persuasive digital data and real-world surroundings to expand the user's reality, wherein objects are produced by various computer applications. It constitutes a novel advancement in medical care, education, and training. Objective The aim of this work was to assess how effective AR is in training medical students when compared to other educational methods in terms of skills, knowledge, confidence, performance time, and satisfaction. Methods We performed a meta-analysis on the effectiveness of AR in medical training that was constructed by using the Cochrane methodology. A web-based literature search was performed by using the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, PubMed, and Embase databases to find studies that recorded the effect of AR in medical training up to April 2021. The quality of the selected studies was assessed by following the Cochrane criteria for risk of bias evaluations. Results In total, 13 studies with a total of 654 participants were included in the meta-analysis. The findings showed that using AR in training can improve participants' performance time (I2=99.9%; P<.001), confidence (I2=97.7%; P=.02), and satisfaction (I2=99.8%; P=.006) more than what occurs under control conditions. Further, AR did not have any effect on the participants’ knowledge (I2=99.4%; P=.90) and skills (I2=97.5%; P=.10). The meta-regression plot shows that there has been an increase in the number of articles discussing AR over the years and that there is no publication bias in the studies used for the meta-analysis. Conclusions The findings of this work suggest that AR can effectively improve performance time, satisfaction, and confidence in medical training but is not very effective in areas such as knowledge and skill. Therefore, more AR technologies should be implemented in the field of medical training and education. However, to confirm these findings, more meticulous research with more participants is needed.

“… 21 Moreover, augmented reality, virtual reality and other digital means are introduced recently for health sciences teaching and they still under investigations. 22–25 For instance, some efforts to develop the students’ skills in replicating dental morphology implemented augmented reality, by providing virtual teeth models that is displayed in the real world by Microsoft Hololens, suggest that augmented reality can be helpful in dental anatomy education, but now they are still not suitable replacements for physical 3D models. 26 …”

Background Learning fine motor skill is central to preclinical dental education. Dental students are introduced to anatomical tooth carving to facilitate the development of their fine motor skill and manual dexterity. Various carving technique exists, such as wax build-up, and geometric (block carving technique). Since substantial laboratory Time and instructors’ effort are required to teach students the desired techniques, blended learning approach via pre-recorded demonstration may improve the teaching and learning efficiency of anatomical tooth carving. For years, we used the Geometric method to teach preclinical dental students to carve down tooth sculptures after performing live demonstrations for them. Multiple practical laboratory demonstrations are necessary to deepen the student’s comprehensive understanding of dental anatomical features and teach them correct instrumentation; this is time-consuming and challenging due to limited laboratory hours and limited view field. Accordingly, in 2016 the teaching staff created videos for tooth drawing, carving, and identification, and uploaded them to the students’ university platform. Years later, we decided to perform this retrospective study. Objective To assess the enhancement in students’ tooth carving skills after implementing blended learning with video demonstrations. Methods The student’s total grades were used for comparative purposes. The students’ total grades between 2010 and 2019 were collected and categorized into two groups: Group 1 (n=858), which learned tooth carving by the Geometric method after live demonstrations, and Group 2 (972), which benefited from blended learning with video demonstrations in learning. The two groups’ mean, median, mode, Percentile 75, and Percentile 90 were compared. Results Group 2 showed higher grades than group 1, and the differences between the two groups’ mean and median were statistically significant p<0.001. Moreover, the mode, P75 and P90 favored group 2. Conclusion Results show that blended learning with video demonstrations enhanced the achievements of dental students in tooth carving.

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of e-books in the last three years and to analyze what types of e-books are most appropriate for current learning. The methodology used is based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). Articles related to the use of e-books from 2020-2022 were searched through the published or perish article search application that focuses on Scopus-indexed articles. The results obtained indicate that the existence of e-books is still widely used to support students to obtain even better learning outcomes. Although several studies have found no significant difference between the use of e-books and regular printed books, the results also show that e-book users got higher learning outcomes. For now, the use of interactive e-books is the most effective e-book of other types, considering that this type of e-book has been tested on users of various ages and different educational backgrounds, with different subjects and different places of implementation.
