Objective:To explore the application effect of flipped classroom model based on Simodont dental training system in the standardized training teaching of prosthodontics.Methods:The control experiment was used in this study. Seventy two students from Batch 2018 and Batch 2019 of Stomatology Hospital of Air Force Medical University were selected and randomly divided into experimental group (flipped classroom model based on Simodont dental training system) and control group (Simodont dental training system training mode after traditional teaching), with 18 students every academic year in each group. Questionnaire survey was conducted to evaluate the teaching effect, and the results of after-class theory test and practical computer test were compared between the two groups. SPSS 20.0 was used for chi-square test and t test. Results:The experimental group was better than the control group in enhancing classroom interest, improving the ability of independent analysis and problem-solving, and cultivating the ability of cooperation and expression ( P<0.05). The scores of after-class theory test and practical computer test in the experimental group [(23.36±0.21) points and (90.56±0.52) points] were significantly better than those in the control group[(21.81±0.25) points and (88.31±0.48) points] ( P<0.01). Conclusion:The flipped classroom model based on Simodont dental training system can effectively improve the effect of standardized training and teaching of professional skills in prosthodontics. At the same time, the students' ability of independent analysis and problem solving, cooperation and communication and expression are effectively improved.

Objective:
To investigate the effect of a metal occlusal surface and stress interruption design on minimally invasive prosthodontics for patients with distal extension absence and insufficient occlusal gingival distance.
Methods :
We retrospectively studied the case of minimally invasive prosthodontic (Vitallium 2000) combined with a metal occlusal surface for distal extension absence in a patient with insufficient occlusal gingival distance; the stress breaking design and pressure impression technology are examined, and relevant articles are reviewd.
Results:
The design effectively solves the problems of insufficient occlusal gingival distance, large occlusal force and easy denture fracture. Reviewing the relevant literature, stress interruption design can effectively protect abutment teeth, but the behavior of stress interruption design and stress conduction phenomena in the mouths of patients has not been reported. The T-scan test results of this study showed that before and after wearing the denture, the occlusal force distribution ratio of the patient changed from 77.5% on the left and 22.5% on the right to 61.3% on the left and 38.7% on the right. The occlusal force distribution ratio of the right dentition to the total occlusal force increased by 16.2%, and the occlusal force became better distributed. Further analysis showed that the occlusal forces on the left and right sides were nearly the same in the initial occlusion stage. As the occlusal force was further increased, the proportion of the occlusal force on the right side decreased in the middle of the occlusion stage and further decreased in the final occlusion stage until it reached a dynamic balance. The above T-scan test and literature review results suggest that this dynamic balance phenomenon of bite force is related to the stress interruption design and the stress conduction effect of the split framework.
Conclusion
The composite of stress interruption design and metal occlusal surface allows for minimally invasive prosthodontics for the treatment of distal extension absence in patients with insufficient occlusal gingival distance.
