Abstract：
Background/Objectives: Cadaveric models have traditionally been a mainstay of dental and medical education worldwide since their inception. In Australia, educators at dental schools were among the first to use cadaveric porcine heads in formal teaching in oral surgery. This practice has since fallen out of favour in most modern dental curricula. The aim of this pilot study was to determine the utility of cadaveric porcine models for oral surgery training from a student perspective (Griffith University, Gold Coast, Australia). Methods: Thirty participants who were all third-year dental students attended a two-hour session comprising a 30 min lecture followed by a 90 min practical workshop. The lecture outlined the steps and supervision of students during the practical and was provided by a consultant maxillofacial surgeon. At the conclusion of the workshop, participants were asked to anonymously complete a printed questionnaire with eight questions related to their experience. Results: Prior to the workshop, two-thirds (61%) of participants felt that they had been taught the surgical procedure for raising mucoperiosteal flaps adequately in their dental school curriculum during their third year, although only 43% of students had assisted specialty residents in raising a mucoperiosteal flap and 14% reported having performed the procedure themselves. Almost all students (96%) agreed that the porcine model was useful for their dental education and that they would practice the exercise using the model again if provided with the opportunity. The questionnaire had a 93.33% completion rate. Conclusions: This pilot study indicates that porcine heads present a useful, low-cost adjunct in the learning of basic oral surgical procedures.
摘要：
背景/目标：自成立以来，尸体模型一直是全球牙科和医学教育的支柱。在澳大利亚,牙科学校的教育工作者是最早在口腔外科的正式教学中使用尸体猪头的人之一。此后，这种做法在大多数现代牙科课程中都不受欢迎。这项初步研究的目的是从学生的角度确定尸体猪模型在口腔外科培训中的实用性（格里菲斯大学，黄金海岸,澳大利亚)。方法：30名所有三年级牙科学生的参与者参加了两个小时的会议，其中包括30分钟的讲座，然后是90分钟的实践研讨会。讲座概述了学生在实践过程中的步骤和监督，并由颌面外科顾问提供。在研讨会结束时，参与者被要求匿名填写一份打印的问卷,其中有8个与他们的经历相关的问题.结果：在研讨会之前，三分之二(61%)的参与者认为他们在第三年的牙科学校课程中被教导过适当提高粘膜骨膜皮瓣的外科手术，尽管只有43％的学生协助专业住院医师举起粘膜骨膜皮瓣，而14％的学生报告自己进行了手术。几乎所有学生（96％）都同意猪模型对他们的牙科教育很有用，如果有机会，他们将再次使用该模型进行练习。问卷的完成率为93.33%。结论：这项初步研究表明，猪头呈现出一种有用的，学习基本口腔外科手术的低成本辅助手段。
