December 2019 brought to the world one of the worst pandemic diseases to exist - COVID-19. The pandemic led to worldwide lockdowns and quarantine, affecting the entire cycle of the world. The education system was one of the severely affected systems. Dental education, which is a practice-based learning system, faced complications due to the pandemic. E-learning methods were adapted in order to restrict the spread of the virus. E-learning has its own advantages and disadvantages. Although dental education is not possible by virtual means, there exist some methodologies that could be incorporated into routine teaching methods. The mixture of traditional learning methods along with newer methods adopted during COVID-19 can prove to improve the understanding procedure. The main aim of this article is to highlight these hybrid methods and encourage their incorporation to enhance the learning experience.
2019年12月，一种有史以来最严重的大流行疾病——新冠病毒病（COVID-19）降临世界。这场大流行导致全球封锁和隔离，影响了世界的整个运转周期。教育系统是受影响最严重的系统之一。牙科教育作为一种基于实践的学习体系，因这场大流行而面临诸多困难。为了限制病毒传播，人们采用了电子学习方法。电子学习有其自身的优缺点。虽然通过虚拟方式进行牙科教育不太可行，但仍有一些方法可以融入常规教学方法中。将传统学习方法与新冠疫情期间采用的新方法相结合，可能会证明有助于改进理解过程。本文的主要目的是突出这些混合方法，并鼓励采用这些方法来提升学习体验。
