Application of virtual reality and haptics system Simodont in Chinese dental education: A scoping review.

Haptic simulation technology is a valuable complementary tool to the phantom head in dental education. The combined utilization of these two training devices has been superior to either in isolation. However, there is a lack of research on the sequencing of the two systems, as well as the appropriate distribution of curriculum between them. It is necessary for educators to organize or engage in experience sharing, collaboration and knowledge dissemination. These actions are essential for promoting effective teaching within dental educational institutions.
