Chatbot Versus Lecture in the Teaching of Endodontic Diagnosis for Undergraduate Students—A Pilot Study
The chatbot was as effective as an interactive lecture in delivering the basic content of pulpal and periapical diagnosis. The students' perception was that the chatbot was simpler and more fun than the lecture; however, the interactive lecture is a better tool to fully understand the topic. The professor is irreplaceable when discussing the content.
