Purpose. This study compared the development of face‐to‐face (F2F) psychomotor skills vs.
a modified online dental anatomy course during the COVID‐19 pandemic. Methods. The 9‐
HPT is regularly applied for the students' psychomotor skill assessment in the Faculty of
Dentistry of Süleyman Demirel University. In the 2020‐21 academic year, 92.2% of students
who took the dental anatomy course in distance education voluntarily participated in this

Purpose. This study compared the development of face‐to‐face (F2F) psychomotor skills vs. a modified online dental anatomy course during the COVID‐19 pandemic. Methods. The 9‐HPT is regularly applied for the students’ psychomotor skill assessment in the Faculty of Dentistry of Süleyman Demirel University. In the 2020‐21 academic year, 92.2% of students who took the dental anatomy course in distance education voluntarily participated in this study (observation group). These data were compared with 34.6% of students who applied for 9‐HPT in 2019‐2020 in F2F education (control group). The Mann–Whitney U test and t‐test were used for comparison. The significance level was taken as p < 0.05. Results. Based on the dominant hand 9‐HPT score, a positive change occurred in 81.8% of the F2F and 61.6% of the online education students. Based on both dominant and nondominant hand 9‐HPT scores, a statistically significant difference between the change in scores according to the fall/spring term measurements was observed in both F2F and distance education (p < 0.001). However, the F2F‐educated group students showed better psychomotor skill development than those exposed to the online‐educated group in 9‐HPT. The results showed statistical significance for both dominant and nondominant hands (p < 0.001). Conclusion. The F2F education is the gold standard in psychomotor skill training; however, in cases where this approach cannot be realized, practical training protocols modified for online training may contribute to the motor development of students.
