Prep-Along Facilitated Posterior Crown Preparation in the Preclinical Dental Setting: A Multimedia Approach.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Dental students often seek visual aids and demonstrations when attempting to perform new procedures. This video resource provides an adjunctive teaching tool for a crown preparation on an ivorine molar using the "prep-along" method. This method teaches crown preparation in a uniform, step-by-step manner while providing feedback to students after each step.

Methods

Prior to the daily simulation clinic session, a calibration session was held for faculty. Following didactic instruction-including principles, criteria, and grading rubric-students participated in the laboratory portion of the course. During this laboratory portion, students viewed a segment of the video, the video was paused, and students attempted that portion of the preparation. The project continue
