Dental phantoms serve multiple purposes in dental education. Primarily, they allow students to practice a wide range of procedures, from basic dental examinations to complex surgeries, in a controlled and repeatable environment. This reduces the risk of errors when they eventually treat real patients. Phantoms also help in assessing the competence and dexterity of students, ensuring they meet the required standards before they are allowed to practice professionally.
