Building confidence in handling challenging patient conversations is a vital skill for dental students — but one that can be difficult to practise authentically in the classroom.
In this case study on managing difficult patient interactions, Professor Amitha Ranauta and Violet Chan share how immersive virtual reality is helping students prepare for the realities of patient care.
The collaborative pilot between the Institute of Dentistry and the Digital Education Studio explored how the AI-driven Bodyswaps platform can simulate real-life clinical interactions and bridge the gap between theory and practice.
