Abstract
The purpose of this study is to assess students' perception of digital waxing software for dental anatomy education. Dental students were introduced to digital waxing during a dental anatomy course, and were requested to finish a voluntary survey. Students strongly agreed (18.2%) or agreed (48.0%) with the statement "digital waxing contributed to my learning of dental anatomy", and strongly agreed (29.9%) and agreed (55.8%) with the statement "The digital waxing software helped develop my wax-up skills". The digital waxing software may be effective for dental anatomy education, but students do not believe digital waxing can be a replacement for conventional wax-up practice.
