University of Leeds - 'Phantom Heads', Leeds

A number of existing teaching rooms were converted into a state-of-the-art dental simulator suite, where student dentists are trained on 30 dental simualtors also called 'phantom heads'.

Lessons can be broadcast to the 30 display screens mounted on each phantom head station. CCTV cameras and a microscope camera also allow the tutor to demonstrate procedures by the same method.

Electrical Services

Services to the 30 phantom heads included under floor power supplies and audio/visual/data networking. The lighting criteria called for good colour rendition/daylight, with no discernable reflections on the 30 display screens and the ability to wash the ceiling and light fittings to maintain clinical conditions. This was all achieved successfully. Lecture/meeting rooms were also provided adjacent to the main area and fitted with interactive whiteboards.

Mechanical Services

Comfort cooling, ventilation with LPHW terminal heater batteries were provided. Potable domestic cold water and domestic hot water were also provided, along with above ground drainage and compressed air to drive the dentists' drills.
