Summary
This study compares different teaching methods to help dental students learn about temporomandibular disorders (TMD), which cause jaw pain and dysfunction. About 90 third- and fourth-year dental students will either use a virtual patient platform, get hands-on clinical experience with real patients, or both. Researchers will measure changes in students' confidence and ability to correctly diagnose TMD cases.
