Digital teaching concept

Based on your vision, we create a modern learning environment with state-of-the-art equipment and features designed especially for educational use of university clinics. Our unmatched digital teaching concept offers the most advanced tools for modern dental education. The end result is an inspiring learning environment for students and a cost-efficient teaching model for dental schools and universities.

Preclinical solutions

We offer different simulation solutions for all educational needs. Our approach is to create a modern learning environment that simulates real treatment situations and provides a smooth transition from preclinical to clinical work. All our solutions are suitable for teaching both two and fourhanded dentistry and instantly convertible from right to lefthanded use.

Preclinical solutions

Planmeca dental unit in clinical environment

With Planmeca dental unit in clinical environment, simulations can be carried out with a phantom head or with a simulation head and torso. This solution offers flexible utilisation of space – the same clinic can be used for simulation and for normal treatments.

Intraoral imaging simulation

Our intraoral X-ray unit can be installed in a special lead-lined cabinet. Students can easily and safely practise intraoral techniques using a phantom head together with our intraoral sensors or imaging plates. The cabinet provides safe X-ray acquisition in the classroom and teaches the real workflows in endodontics and other special fields. The images are immediately available in the Planmeca Romexis® software.

Better daily operations through information

All Planmeca dental units can be connected to Planmeca Romexis® Clinic Management software. It collects information of all dental unit usage and thus acts as a practical tool for student evaluation and scientific research. It allows storing personal dental unit settings, such as chair positions and instrument settings, and enables applying specified user restrictions for different user groups (e.g. more advanced options for post-graduate students).
