Abstract:ObjectivesThis study investigated the effectiveness of simulation training in improving the confidence and competency of oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMS) residents in performing orthognathic surgery (OGS).MethodsKern's six‐step approach was applied when designing the simulation training for OMS residents. The difficulties encountered by the residents when learning OGS were considered when designing the training program. A training course consisting of didactic sessions, hands‐on training on three‐dimension… Show more
