Evaluation of Hand-Scaling Skills of Dental Hygienist Students: Identification of Contact Between Hand-Scaler Blade Tip and Tooth Surface

Evaluation of Hand-Scaling Skills of Dental Hygienist Students: Identification of Contact Between Hand-Scaler Blade Tip and Tooth Surface

Dental hygienist students require a self-learning simulator to learn the correctness of hand-scaling techniques. An essential technique in hand scaling is the maintenance of contact between the tip of the hand-scaler blade and the tooth. However, imaging-based methods cannot effectively reveal this...
