A clinician's skills in a dental clinic are an important factor in removing the risk factors of patients. Although many universities have conducted educational programs, there has been a limitation on repeated practice because of the limited space and equipment. In dental radiography, there are various intraoral radiographic techniques. Since proficiency in radiography is an important factor in obtaining accurate radiographs, repeated practice and skill learning are important at the pre-clinical stage. However, the recent amendment of diagnostic radiation has caused difficulties in repeated practice on the human body. This study aims to develop a clinical simulator for intraoral radiography that enables repeated practice and self-directed learning without any restriction by utilizing the augmented reality technology to foster clinical skills for dental hygienist.
