Dentoalveolar surgery education in Chinese undergraduate dental schools: a national survey of curriculum structure, simulation training and assessment

Short summary

A national survey of 49 Chinese dental schools reveals that while dentoalveolar surgery is integrated into oral and maxillofacial surgery courses, primarily in the fourth year, there's significant variation in teaching hours (4-36h theory, 4-36+h practice). Core content covers basic extractions and anesthesia, with 61% offering progressive simulation training. However, complex procedure simulation and interactive digital tools are underutilized.
