ZuluINDIA: Colgate-Palmolive India has taken a pioneering step by conducting its inaugural metaverse masterclass tailored for dental students.
This innovative educational endeavor saw selected dental schools’ students receiving mentorship from renowned dentist Dr. Sandesh Mayekar and Dr. Svapna Koppikar, Director of Professional Oral Care at Colgate-Palmolive, APAC, on the topic of ‘Setting up a dental clinic.’
Metaverse: A Game-Changer for Dental Education
The metaverse masterclass introduced a virtual reality experience created by Baker-E, an experiential design company, which vividly showcased the intricacies involved in establishing a successful dental clinic.
The program provided students with real-world insights and practical knowledge that are indispensable for their future careers. Colgate-Palmolive’s foray into the metaverse signifies its commitment to driving innovation in dental education.
Commenting on this groundbreaking initiative, Dr. Svapna Koppikar, Director of Professional Oral Care at Colgate-Palmolive, stated, “We aim to support dental students in their educational journey and skill development.
“This initiative is a unique opportunity for future dental professionals to get mentored firsthand by our Key Opinion Leaders like Dr. Mayekar, on ‘Setting up a dental clinic.’ Innovation is at the core of our practices, and we hope to inspire and guide these students with this initiative.”
Riveting Experience
Metaverse Masterclass instructor, Dr. Sandesh Mayekar, also expressed his enthusiasm for this pioneering venture: “Foraying into the Metaverse for oral health education is a completely new experience for students as well as myself. This initiative by Colgate has enabled dental students to witness an immersive life-like experience with a virtual walkthrough of a dental clinic.
Interacting with the students inside the metaverse and answering questions on setting up a dental clinic was not only interesting but riveting, and I see many opportunities to innovate in the way we teach.”
