Impression Conference

7/12/2020

0 Comments

 
ASDA partnered with our local SNDA and ADEA chapters to host SNDA’s Annual
Impression conference. We were in charge of the Simulation Lab portion of the event
where we had 130 pre-dental students practice drilling on Learn-a-preps and pour up
a model of a typodont tooth. There were dental student volunteers from different
classes walking around and talking to the pre-dental students. Several pre-dental
students got a chance to have one-on-one conversations with UCSF dental students
and exchange experiences. This is the goal of our pre-dental events because we
believe that the most valuable advice is usually passed on with personal interactions.
​
We introduced a new part to the simulation lab experience this year by creating a
small Dental toolkit exhibit, where we placed our dental kits on display for each
specialty. We had a kit for Operative, Crown and Bridge, Prosthodontics,
Endodontics, and Periodontics. Pre-dental students were able to see what kind of
instruments we use in simlab and ultimately in clinic, this allowed them to gain
another perspective on what dental school is about. Photos and videos were
encouraged and several predental students enjoyed looking at the kits. We also had
a few volunteers stationed here to answer any questions as well as provide a quick
overview on how each set of instruments were utilized.
