ABSTRACT
LocalAnesthesiaVRis a virtual reality training system for dental anesthesia, a clinical procedure every dentist must be competent with, and one that is particularly challenging to master throughout the demanding dental curriculum. This unique VR-based system provides learners with visual, auditory and haptic feedback enabling experiential learning in pre-clinical education.
