Oral Surgery Simulator
Todays undergraduate curriculum for clinical teaching in oral and maxillofacial surgery at the Institute of Odontology, Karolinska Institutet does not provide the students with much practical training. In this inter-disciplinary project between Karolinska Institutet, the Royal Institute of Technology and Forsslund Systems AB a oral surgery simulator is being constructed - providing students with means for hands-on training of wisdom tooth surgery.
