Research Abstract	We developed a new education method to learn the flow of treatment in a dental clinic. Dental equipments (Chair unit, light etc..) were set in a research room and a monitoring system was set in the other room to record the performance of dental students during treatment on a mannequin. This new system and a new education program which includes conversation with a mannequin (monitor) will be a new method to learn how to treat a patient in real setting before starting real patients.
