Abstract: Case-based learning (CBL) links theory to practice, takes students as the main body, guides students to explore, discover and solve problems by using clinical cases, which has achieved remarkable application effect in many teaching fields. Compared with traditional teaching methods, CBL fully stimulates students' initiative to study independently, strengthens their self-confidence and enhances their clinical practical skills effectively. It overcomes the shortcomings of the gap between traditional classroom teaching and clinical practice process, and helps students to be fully prepared for clinical practice. This paper reviews the application status and effects of CBL in stomatological teaching, and puts forward the problems and reflections with a view to provide some reference for future innovative development.
