Abstract
By means of Visual Basic.NET and as part of a series of CAL programs we developed a program “Mounting of Dental Radiographs”, the aim of which is to make dental students understand how to place dental radiographs in a logical order—a prerequisite for easy viewing and interpretation. The program is built up as a game where the student from a stack of randomly arranged dental radiographs has to first make certain that they do not have to be reversed or rotated and then drag-and-drop them in their correct positions. After having placed all radiographs–around 20–the mounting is checked by a “teacher”. If not correct the student has two more chances to try before “game over”. The reason we used Visual Basic.NET is that it is a very versatile tool permitting other users of the program to make their own modifications of it.
