Eyes on the Future
Encouraged by the reception and with strengthened ties to relevant organizations, we are forging our way ahead to ensure the continued dissemination of the latest knowledge in VR-haptic dental education.
World's youngest but largest...
The use of VR-haptics in dental education and research allows for the gain of meaningful behavioral insights with a level of accuracy you could expect from real-world simulation and clinical training. The VR-Haptic Thinkers Meetup is one of the world's youngest conferences but was also the largest event on VR-haptic dental education in 2023. The conference brought together businesses and high academics from around the dental world to showcase the usefulness of VR-haptic technology and its applications.
