Purpose : The purpose of this study is to serve as a valuable resource for guiding the digitization of dental hygiene curricula and improving educational quality.
Methods : A self-administered survey was conducted among a random sample of dental hygiene students who had undergone clinical practicums at universities in Busan and Ulsan. The sample consisted of 270 subjects, accounting for the dropout rate. The data were analyzed using SPSS Statistics 27.0 with a statistical significance level set at α = .05. Descriptive statistics were used to assess demographic characteristics, awareness of digital oral scanners, prior traininged experience, and willingness to, and whether or not they wanted to be undergo training. Cross tabulation and independent samples t-tests were employed to compare the improvement of dental care following the introduction of digital oral scanners based on general characteristics, prior training experience, and willingness to attend training. Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was used to analyze the multivariate differences in the improvement of dental care when introducing digital oral scanners according to the experience of digital oral scanner training, and Duncan-s post hoc test was performed.
Results : Among the perceptions of an improved dental treatment environment, digital oral scanners are more likely to be seen as improving dental diagnosis, increasing practice efficiency, and improving the image of the clinic when training experience is lacking. In addition, perceptions of digital dentistry, adapting well to the digital operating system, and needing ongoing continuous training in on digital procedures procedures wereare more likely to be used when training experience was lacking. The main effect of educational experience was found to be higher among those with no educational experience, meaning that students without such experience tended to have higher positive expectations of digital intraoral scanners. This indicates that perceptions may differ based on technology experience.
Conclusions : By analyzing the impact of digital oral scanner training on students' expectations and actual perceptions, this study suggests directions for digital technology education in dental hygiene. In particular, a balanced approach that harmonizes theory and practice is needed to reduce the gap between students expectations and experiences. This approach is expected to establish a standard of practice utilizing digital technology and to provide an educational foundation that helps students become highly adaptable in clinical practice.
