Abstract
Objective:
To develop digital multimedia instruction on intraoral suturing.
Methods:
A DVD was developed to describe instruments, materials, and techniques. Two groups of dental students were asked to close an incision in a simulated model. One used written materials only and another used additional DVD. The performance was evaluated using 10 grading criteria.
Result:
Students who used the DVD performed better than students who did not.
Conclusion:
This DVD could be used widely in teaching dental students.
