This simulation walks players through realistic patient-care scenarios, from diagnosis to procedure to aftercare guidance, adapted into an interactive format anyone can learn from.
Open Wide recreates a full day at a dental clinic: eight patients, each with their own treatment. Mia (6) is scared of her first cleaning, Ana (7) gets sealants and fluoride, a kids class learns to brush, Jordan (14) gets braces, Chris (15) walks in with a knocked-out tooth, Daniel (58) needs his health history and consent reviewed, Sam (34) has cavities and an extraction, and Alex (16) lives a year of choices. Plus a first-person walk through the clinic with Oregon dental law stations. Even the credits are playable. Facts were checked against Oregon statutes, Oregon Board of Dentistry rules, the ADA, AAPD, AAO and CDC in October 2026. Best played in landscape, with sound on. Works with mouse, touch, keyboard and gamepad.
