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.
