Industries are increasingly adopting digital twins for their unprecedented ability to control physical entities and manage complex systems by integrating multiple technologies. While the dental industry has seen technological advancements, the adoption of digital twins in dental education remains uncertain.
In this study, a mixed-method approach investigates the added value of digital twins for remote learning in dentistry. The research examines the current extent of digital twin adoption by dental institutions, sheds light on concepts and benefits, and provides an application-based roadmap for broader adoption.
The study reviews digital twin applications in the healthcare industry, identifies use cases, and compares them with applications in other disciplines. It assesses reported benefits, research levels, and adoption rates across industries, distilling characteristics that can enhance dental education.
Inspired by digital twin applications in various fields, the study proposes a roadmap for digital twins in remote dental education, featuring examples of increasing complexity. It concludes by identifying distinctive characteristics of dental digital twins for remote learning.

DenTeach™: A Novel Application of Digital Twins in Healthcare
In a recent publication in the Journal of Visual Worlds, Tactile Robotics explores the application of digital twins in the healthcare industry, focusing on the dental sector.
Abstract: Industries are increasingly adopting digital twins for their unprecedented ability to control physical entities and manage complex systems by integrating multiple technologies. However, the extent of digital twin adoption in the dental industry for remote education remains uncertain. This work employs a mixed-method approach to investigate the added value of digital twins for remote learning in dentistry, shedding light on concepts, benefits, and an application-based roadmap for wider adoption.
The paper reviews digital twins in healthcare, identifies use cases, compares them across disciplines, and outlines characteristics that add value to dental education. Inspired by applications in other fields, the study proposes a roadmap for digital twins in dental education, highlighting growing complexity and unique characteristics for remote learning.
