Clinical and Virtual Simulation Laboratory
In the 5,500-square-foot, 64-station clinical and virtual simulation laboratory, students learn the latest clinical techniques and skills through clinical simulations and virtual dental trainers which use simulation technology to achieve a high level of realism. Cutting-edge 3D, virtual reality and haptics technology allow students to navigate and manipulate virtual clinical environments.
