Haptic Simulation for Virtual Training in Application of Dental Anesthesia

Several fields of the knowledge have been benefited by technologies from Virtual Reality (VR) area. This paper presents an analysis of problems related to the domain of dentistry, specifically for training in anesthesia, and the possibility of resolution using VR. The analysis assumes that the haptic interaction in virtual environments is relevant in the area of training in health and may contribute in the skills acquisition, providing realistic experiences to the trainess. Initially, a detailed requirements survey with the participation of experts was conducted, as well as the development of a prototype for preliminary testing.
