This department was started in the year 2006 with the intake of 100 BDS students, in the year 2012 MDS course was started training three post graduate students. There are separate UG and PG sections with adequate dental chairs built in the area of 7,000 sq feet. We have separate department for implantology which works with prosthodontics.
