D4D launches learning tool for dental schools

D4D Technologies, manufacturer of the E4D Dentist system, has introduced E4D Compare, an adaptive learning technology tool for dental teaching institutions.

E4D Compare provides students with self-evaluation tools for precise measurement and feedback about the student's sample preparations and restorations, as well as how they compare with the institution's standards. As students progress, they develop digital portfolios that demonstrate their accomplishments in tooth preparation, restoration design, and occlusal articulation.

From the faculty perspective, E4D Compare provides evidence-based assessment tools that also document student progression.

"There is a crisis in dental education; many students believe that grading is subjective and inconsistent," said Walter Renne, DMD, course director for CAD/CAM technologies and ceramics at the Medical University of South Carolina College of Dental Medicine. "The E4D Compare software program enables students to learn by challenging themselves against the master templates."

E4D Compare is available through Henry Schein Dental and is compatible with E4D Dentist and E4D Labworks systems, as well as PCs meeting certain processing and graphics requirements.
