College Applies 3D Tech to Clinical Teaching

2014/11/19 0:06:09 | by Administor | Administration Office

Under  the leadership of Professor Zhou Nuo, College of Stomatology has long  been attaching great importance to educational reform, research the  introduction of new technique method. Nov.12th, 2014  marked the first day that the college applied imaging technology of full  high definition 3D to clinical teaching, yielding good results  being well received by teachers students.



       It is well known that dental education cannot be seperated from  clinical observation demonstration. However, during every  demonstration only a few students can see it clearly due to short dental  operation distance, narrow view impediment of equipment  appliance. Traditional two-dimentional image cannot vividly manifest the  layers of intraoral tissues. On the contrary, 3D virtual imaging can  fill the gap so as to make it easier for students to understevery  step during the operation, thus increasing students’ comprehensive  ability teachers’ teaching quality.


         Innovation has been the longtime pursuit of College of Stomatology. In  recent years, the teaching faculty of College of Stomatology led by vice  president Zhou Nuo, have constantly innovated teaching model put  forward a conception of “Seamless Connection”, innovative teaching  model for undergraduates which means the integration of theory teaching,  practical skill training. It was awarded the special award of  provincial teaching achivement in 2012. In 2014, we applied for a  provincial educational reform project named “Application of Web3D in  Stomatological Education”. After six months’ research development,  we have overcome a series of problems in regard to realtime  transmission, full high definition 3D vedio synthesis, PPT making of 3D  courseware intraoral 3D macro photography technique. We also built a  vedio on demsystem which can broadcast online the on-going  operations lectures to students in 3D classroom. This teaching  practice with web3D technique takes the lead in the world. At present,  the college plans to apply this 3D technique to dental teaching in an  all around way compile 3D textbooks in stomatology so as to make  positive contribution to deepening reform on undergraduate education.
