The Effects of AR and VR Oral Care Training System on Oral Healthcare for Elderly in Eldercare Students

Students simulated the treatment of the elderly with different physical and oral conditions using virtual situations and employed suitable oral care methods depending on each situation through VR. They learned the Bass brushing technique, the interdental brush cleaning method, and the soft tissue cleaning method through AR.

The well-trained oral hygienist provided traditional oral care instruction with the same teaching content in the AR/VR-based training system.
