Simodont Dental Training Simulators

Simodont Dental Training Simulators


Through the efforts of former Dean Danilo Magtanong, the College of Dentistry was able to procure 3 Simodont units, a project which aims to augment the simulated Teaching-Learning activities of the UPCD with Virtual reality Technology.
The current UPCD administration, headed by Dean Michelle Segarra, will now take charge in further developing the use of this newly procured technology in the training of our UPCD students and then oversee the implementation of the project. Congratulations UPCD!

Simodont® Dental Trainer helps build students’ skills, insight and confidence before moving into the clinic. Simodont provides an effective learning and training environment for a range of dental procedures and serves as a ‘virtual reality phantom head’.

  • Applies sophisticated haptic technology used in flight simulators, adapted and tailored for medical simulation
  • Offers proven skill transfer from Simodont into the physical world, for example by training on virtual reality manual dexterity blocks
  • Provides a safe learning environment where students can experience and practice real-world patient scenarios
  • intra-oral scans (.STL files) can be imported and worked on so that students can practice repeatedly on their specific patient prior to treating that patient in the clinic
  • Tooth models are based on high resolution scans of actual teeth, featuring detailed anatomy, pathology and different material properties
  • Instructors can create and tailor training programs using the flexible software and model database
  • Simodont is installed and supported at over 80 dental schools around the world creating a large community
  • New features and functionalities are continuously developed together with dental schools
  • A cost effective system without the need for any consumables, extracted teeth, complex facility requirements or waste material handling
