One of the most
important and basic necessities for a young dental graduate to start practice
is a dental chair and other equipment. As the young dental graduate’s practice
flourishes, routine wear and tear occurs in the dental chair and equipment that
he/she uses in day to day practice. Keeping this in mind, one of the objectives
of Hazaribag College of Dental Sciences & Hospital is to ensure that the
students passing out from this institution should never face any issue with
regard to the problems associated with regular wear and tear of the dental
chair and other dental equipment. To fulfill this endeavor the institute
conducts one of its kind (in entire India) classes on monthly basis titled Dental
Chair and Equipment Maintenance class for the interns of this institute. In
these classes, the interns are taught by faculty in association with dental
chair technicians on the nuances of maintenance of dental chair and equipment,
and conduct minor repairs of dental chair and equipment. These classes will
help the students in running an effective dental practice in their future, and
ensures that their day to day practice is not affected by any breakdown of the
dental chair, its components and other dental equipment.
