The Dental Learning Centre Facility

The Dental Learning Centre - Oakville, Ontario

Lower Level - Clinical Teaching Facility

The "Theatre in the Round" lecture facility on the first level allows participants to eavesdrop from the toe of the dental chair in one of the largest operatories in the world. Directly adjacent is a consultation/treatment presentation area where simulated patient interactions utilize technology to increase patient awareness and enhance patient learning.

The Dental Learning Centre is enhanced by being fully equipped with superior audio visual capabilities, numerous technologies, including microscopes and the new KaVo laser, live operatory, practical hands on stations and the latest addition patient phantom units.

In the lecture room, the consultative "playlets" can be interactive between the clinician and the audience while the over the shoulder video camera/microscope and a wide screen LCD monitor provide ease of viewing for course participants.

Upper Level - Typodont Teaching Facility

The Clinical Skills Facility supplies 15 fully serviced workstations where new clinical/technical skills can be readily developed and enhanced.

Initially through the use of typodont models to phantom heads, the dentist is hands-on through the entire procedure while the instructor demonstrates from a glass enclosed HI-TECH operatory with sophisticated audio-visual for clear viewing.
