| Abstract: | Tooth morphology has been taught at several institutes for better understanding and to provide favourable, comfortable and adequate treatment for the patients. The Knowledge of tooth anatomy is essential for practicing the various dental specialties. All dental schools must have a discipline responsible for teaching dental anatomy in their curriculum, in which theoretical content is conveyed to students and later reproduced by them in dental carving wax. Thus, the aim of this study was to cognise the degree of difficulty in carving different teeth in tooth morphology acquired from the undergraduate students of Saveetha dental college. In total 200 undergraduates participated in the survey. They were given a softcopy of questionnaires to be filled that consisted of 26 questions. It was sent through the help of an app named "schoology" which is used by the students enrolled in Saveetha dental college. 87% of the students involved in this study were right handed and rest were left. In accordance to the student's opinion, carving of the labial and the proximal aspect of the incisors were the easiest when compared with the other aspects and features of incisors and 60% of the participants declared that the most difficult was the carving of the molar furcations as this part tends to frequent breakage of the wax on even the slightest of pressure. Within the limits of this study, the right handed participants had comfortable and better adaptation and dexterity towards the process of tooth carving with the most easiest part to carve being the labial and proximal aspect of incisors and the most difficult aspect to be carved was the furcations of the molars. A greater understanding of student learning difficulties for each tooth structure will be valued and noticed through this survey to provide an alternative and minimize the difficulties of students. |
