Multi-modal sensory feedback such as proprioception and vision are integrated by humans to perform a novel sensorimotor task, which helps to make appropriate adjustments to complete the task successfully (Franklin et al., 2007). In order to enhance postural and balance control in sports and clinical training, visual feedback is an effective method (Wan et al., 2019). In a variety of motor disorders, visual biofeedback of muscle activity is helpful reducing excess muscle contraction (Young et al., 2011). To maintain balance, vision collects information about the location and movement of body segments. The main aim of this study was to create awareness and knowledge on visual feedback enhancing activation of muscle movements among dental students. Self-administrated questionnaire was designed based on awareness. The questionnaire was distributed through an online Google forms link in Which study population included 100 dental students of age 18- 26 years. Method of representation of each output Variable was in pie chart form where descriptive statistics were used to create pie charts. The measure that was taken to minimize the sampling bias was that the validity was checked both internally and externally. The result was statistically analyzed using SPSS statistic 19 software. Poor vision has a powerful effect on balance, which causes postural change and imbalance that eventually decreases motion, whereas in this survey, 59% think systematic errors are produced in movement endpoints, when visual feedback of initial position is distorted. In other research it is found that Visual feedback may not be advantageous once a skill is well learned, here, 45 % think visual feedback method is advantageous in learning motor skills.This study concludes that the majority of the study participants were aware that multiple types of sensory information are integrated by the brain to achieve voluntary muscle movements. But more awareness has to be created on the visual feedback method as we alter our body movements in response to changing cues in our daily life.
