EBS Partner MEDENT & Hong Bang International University
Digitalization of Dental Education at HIU, Vietnam
The digital revolution is making significant strides in Vietnam’s healthcare sector – particularly in dental education.
In this context, MEDENT, a leading provider of dental technology and system partner of DS & EBS, has taken an important step forward in collaboration with Hong Bang International University (HIU).
By introducing two state-of-the-art systems – Sim Modular and EBS alphadidact® Digital – MEDENT is laying the foundation for a modern, practice-oriented dental training program aligned with international standards.
Challenge
Traditional dental training at HIU faced several key challenges:
-
Limited opportunities for realistic simulation of complex treatments
-
Lack of interactive communication between instructors and students
-
Difficulty in tracking and adapting individual student progress
-
High material usage and training costs
A technological solution was needed to sustainably improve both the quality of instruction and the practical training experience through digitalization.
The Solution
To meet these requirements, MEDENT implemented two innovative technologies:
1. Sim Modular – Training Simulation System
Sim Modular is a modular system that simulates real-world treatment procedures, allowing students to apply theoretical knowledge in hands-on scenarios.
Benefits:
For instructors:
-
Improved teaching quality with precise, real-life simulations
-
Increased student focus and engagement
-
Recording of lesson sessions for review and evaluation
For students:
-
Live observation of treatment procedures on screen
-
Ability to replay and analyze sessions independently
For the university:
-
Automated system with low maintenance requirements
-
Compatible with various devices – no complex infrastructure needed
-
Includes a 3-year international warranty
2. EBS alphadidact® Digital – Personalized Interaction System
The alphadidact® Digital multimedia system from EBS Euchner Büro- und Schulsysteme GmbH Germany allows instructors to communicate directly with individual students and offer personalized feedback.
Benefits:
-
Improved teaching effectiveness through targeted support
-
Real-time interaction between instructors and learners
-
Secure data transmission and user-friendly operation
-
Recording of lectures with playback for review
-
Multimedia-based learning for enhanced comprehension
Results
The implementation of Sim Modular and alphadidact® Digital has had a measurable impact at HIU:
-
Higher learning efficiency through realistic simulations and interactive teaching
-
Faster application of theoretical knowledge thanks to intuitive system operation
-
Cost savings by reducing material consumption
-
Improved technical precision, with students performing simulations before working on real patients
Strategic Significance
The successful implementation of these two technologies positions HIU as a pioneer in digital dental education in Vietnam.
This collaboration with MEDENT highlights the strategic importance of technology-based learning solutions and sets the foundation for long-term improvements in training quality.
alphadidact® Digital multimedia systems are developed by EBS in Germany and are already used in numerous training rooms and laboratories around the world.
