VR and Augmented Reality " Metaverse " in Dentistry
Virtual Reality, Augmented reality and Artificial intelligence in Dental, Medical Practice and Education
Description
This course is of prime importance to developers, dentists, dental students, doctors, medical students, radiologists, and nurses. Developers of VR and AR technologies who are interested in creating VR and AR products to serve healthcare industry will benefit much from this unique affordable course.
Virtual reality technology allows dentists and dental students to rehearse and test operations on mannequins before attempting them on real patients. Oral surgery, tooth repair, and dental education are just some of the many dental applications for this cutting-edge device. One of the features of the VR simulator is the ability to capture data, so that the user can easily examine and evaluate their progress after training. Preparing for actual operations and doing self-evaluations are both aided by this technology.
Augmented reality's ability to merge physical and digital data benefits dentistry. Since this information is shown directly on the patient, dentists can readily detect any changes. Augmented reality displays videos, photos, and 3D models to patients, improving doctor-patient communication and therapeutic comprehension. Dental augmented reality gives patients and dentists real-time data to improve clinical practice.
The global augmented and virtual reality market in dentistry is growing, and it’s predicted to reach 3,554.5 million Dollars by 2030. VR and AR technologies are becoming integrated into dental education, providing a safe and controlled environment for students to practice and improve their skills. The field of dentistry is no stranger to technological advancements, and the use of VR and AR is no exception. According to a recent market analysis conducted by Cognitive Market Research, the global augmented and virtual reality market size in dentistry is projected to grow at a CAGR of 18.4% from 2023 to 2030, with a projected value of 3,554.5 million Dollars by 2030. Another report also mentioned that the global AR and VR market in healthcare is expected to reach 18.08 billion Dollars by 2030, with a CAGR of 20.14%. However, another report by Arab Health published in November projected that the industry would be valued at 5.37 billion Dollars by 2030.
One innovative solution that aims to bridge the gap between physical and virtual dental care is called Dentaverse. By leveraging VR/AR technologies, Dentaverse provides dental professionals and students with an immersive learning experience. For instance, the University of Queensland has already integrated VR/AR technologies into its dentistry curriculum, allowing students to practice and improve their skills in a safe and controlled virtual environment. As the dental industry continues to embrace innovations (such as computer-aided and simulation technologies), the potential for VR/AR to transform the field is becoming increasingly apparent.
It’s not uncommon for patients to experience anxiety and fear of pain before dental surgery. Here, VR can provide a welcome distraction by transporting patients to a calming artificial environment. If dental equipment breaks during a procedure, waiting for a professional to fix it may be unsafe. This is where AR can be handy. Using AR headsets, technicians can guide dentists remotely, providing real-time assistance with repairing equipment and minimizing patient risks.
Dr. Brian Fiani made history after successfully hosting a virtual reality spine surgery seminar in the metaverse for 50 spine surgeons from ten countries. The seminar was held at the New York City Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery Symposium on December 15-17, 2022.
