EFFECTIVENESS OF TRADITIONAL LECTURE VERSUS VIDEO FOR ORTHODONTIC TRAINING OF DENTAL INTERNS

ABSRACT... Introduction: Use of audiovisual aids is not new to improve dental teaching efficiency. Objective: To compare the effectiveness of traditional lecture versus video for orthodontic training of dental interns. Study design: Prospective, Randomized trial. Setting: Orthodontic Dental Section, Faisalabad Medical University. Period: 15.7.2017 to 5.2.2018. Materials & Methods: Two groups of 15 dental interns were selected randomly at Orthodontic Dental Section, Faisalabad Medical University. One group was presented with traditional lecture while other group was shown a video. The learning objective of both was to train the dental interns to bond molar tubes onto extracted human lower first molars. Dental interns bonded molar tubes and results were assessed by an experienced blinded orthodontist. Results were analyzed for accuracy of molar tube bonding. Results: Results showed that there was insignificant difference between the two groups for accuracy of molar tube bonding onto extracted human lower first molars (P value=0.3401). Conclusion: Traditional lecture and video were equally effective for orthodontic training of dental interns for bonding of molar tubes.
