2) Postgraduate students: The PG activities involve lively discussions; both chair side and academic regarding each case attended by the student. With changing times there is a need to create more employment opportunities for the post graduate students. The department provides in-depth knowledge and guidance about Radiographic Reporting, may it be for two dimensional or three dimensional radiography.

 

The department also has a separate speciality clinic where routine dental treatments such as oral prophylaxis, fillings amongst others are done on medically compromised cases by post graduate trainees. Clinical and didactic skills are inculcated in the post graduates so that they can in turn encourage younger doctors to realize their learning objectives. Students are also stimulated to take up independent research projects to answer difficult scientific questions pertaining to diagnosis and treatment of oral diseases.

 

Altogether choosing the department of Oral Medicine and Maxillofacial Radiology to pursue post graduation will lead to overall development of the student both on the personal and professional front.
