The upgrade includes 82 units of dental patient simulators that feature programmable touchpads, operating lights and operator’s chairs identical to those used in the School of Dental Medicine’s Dental Clinic located on Chester Avenue.
Students will benefit from Kilgore Darwin Manikins with the new Kilgore 700 Typodont series, simulated caries teeth, and the latest Bien-Air Optima MX2 electric motor appliances—which support restorative, endodontic, and implant dentistry skills.
