How is the patients OPD in your institution?
There will be enough patients to do hands on work. We are having a
six operatory dental clinic for this purpose. We offer treatment at very low

institute. Providing patient work is strictly subject to the the judgement of your
skills by the instructor, until such time that you have reached basic skill level, you will only
have opportunity to observe.
Under whom will the guidance course be carried out?
Training will be carried out under senior and experienced staff from
India, these are very senior faculty who have trained in several countries
and have trained several MDS who are practicing all over India. The staff
here have been teaching for past over 30 years in different dental colleges and
have guided several Post graduates and have lectured in schools all over the
world. This is the only course in the country where faculty is experienced
as a senior teacher as well as in practice, having seen both the worlds they
give you the best possible from all aspects.
