“…Cariology includes research in dental hard tissues, dental wear (erosive/ non-erosive), and dental hard tissue disorders [13]. This wider view of cariology opens new perspectives in dental education and research, being a strong motive for improving diagnostic skills, while treating and preventing carious lesions in more effective ways [15,16].…”

Dental caries is a multifactor disease affecting a significant number of people throughout the world. However, in recent decades the widespread availability of fluoride and other preventive measures have resulted in a decline in the prevalence of caries among children and young adults. Currently, it is accepted that most carious dental lesions are restricted to specific anatomical sites. The aim of this chapter is to review the influence of dental anatomy on dental caries development while taking into account recent findings in cariology. Occlusal fissures in the first permanent molar are generally the first sites in the permanent dentition to develop caries. An increased risk of caries is also found in proximal contacting surfaces between two adjacent teeth. Moreover, a partially erupted tooth, which does not participate in mastication, is also at risk for caries since it may provide a more favorable environment for bacterial accumulation than a fully erupted tooth. Bacterial biofilm on the tooth is frequently a high risk caries environment. Understanding anatomical dental features is of great importance for guiding oral health hygiene and preventive measures. Finally, the development of dental disorders plays an important role in dental caries risk.

“…A literature review of 3D technologies in anatomical education showed that a majority of studies reported positive outcomes but none reported negative impacts on cognitive loads of users (Hackett and Proctor, ). Particularly, the development of 3D simulators coupled with augmented reality, automated feedback, and /or haptic response for surgical procedures has proven useful in skills development and consolidation while providing standardization of execution amongst students (Bakr et al, ; Perry et al, ; Roy et al, ; Kwon et al, ). Moreover, augmented reality was recently introduced to teach dental procedures such as cavity preparation, showing favorable response from dental students (Llena et al, ).…”

Tooth morphology has a pivotal role in the dental curriculum and provides one of the important foundations of clinical practice. To supplement tooth morphology teaching a three‐dimensional (3D) quiz application (app) was developed. The 3D resource enables students to study tooth morphology actively by selecting teeth from an interactive quiz, modify their viewpoint and level of zoom. Additionally, students are able to rotate the tooth to obtain a 3D spatial understanding of the different surfaces of the tooth. A cross‐over study was designed to allow comparison of students’ results after studying with the new application or traditionally with extracted/model teeth. Data show that the app provides an efficient learning tool and that students’ scores improve with usage (18% increase over three weeks, P < 0.001). Data also show that student assessment scores were correlated with scores obtained while using the app but were not influenced by the teaching modality initially accessed (r2 = 0.175, P < 0.01). Comparison of the 2016 and 2017 class performance shows that the class that had access to the app performed significantly better on their final tooth morphology assessment (68.0% ±15.0 vs. 75.3% ±13.4, P < 0.01). Furthermore, students reported that the 3D application was intuitive, provided useful feedback, presented the key features of the teeth, and assisted in learning tooth morphology. The 3D tooth morphology app thus provides students with a useful adjunct teaching tool for learning dental anatomy. Anat Sci Educ 00: 000–000. © 2018 American Association of Anatomists.

Preclinical and clinical education variety for dentistry Main objective of dental education is to help students to develop their clinical skills. The clinical training covering the three-quarters of overall dental curriculum focuses mainly on developing the psychomotor skills required for restorative and prosthetic procedures. Dental students exercise a serial of previously defined professional skills under the supervision in their faculty clinics. Preclinical training using manikins as a simulated patient neccessary for a humanistic education standards is usually limited to restorative procedures. Preclinical education held in laboratories do not usually support students to gain professional and interprofessional experiences related to patient relations, control of enfection and the steps of clinical procedures. In this review study, today's preclinical and clinical training models such as virtual reality, computer-based assesments, self-evaluating, standardized patients, community-based clinical training and case completion model are being discussed to be able to make some suggestions for improving skills of dental students.
