Development and Initial Usability Evaluation of SSEndoSim, a Free, Web-Based Endodontic Diagnostic Simulator: Cross-Sectional Study

Abstract SSEndoSim, a free, open access, mobile, web-based endodontic diagnostic simulation application for undergraduate dental education, demonstrated favorable usability rated on a System Usability Scale (SUS) witht a composite 100-point score (mean 75.30, SD 14.72) and high perceived educational value (PEV) on a 5-point scale (mean 4.62, SD 0.40) in a cross-sectional usability evaluation of final-year bachelor of dental surgery (BDS) students at Liaquat University of Medical and Health Sciences (LUMHS), Jamshoro, Pakistan, in April 2026, establishing usability and learner acceptability.
