Conservative Dentistry & Endodontics
The Department of Conservative Dentistry & Endodontics is one of the specialties of dentistry. Our Motto is to “spread smiles across the miles”. Conservative dentistry deals with the treatment of caries, malformed, discolored, non-esthetic, or fractured teeth and Endodontics deals with treatment of pulpal and periapical diseases and dental pain management.
The Department is located at the second floor of Institute of Dental Studies and Technologies and is fully equipped with all the desired armamentarium to carry out best of treatment. We have faculty which is abreast with the current global scenario and imparts relevant and substantial clinical and academic knowledge to the students. The Department has its own State of Art Simulation Lab; a conglomeration of simulation manikins with magnetic metal head skulls, drainage masks and MQD jaw models. The typhodont teeth simulate the natural dentition for performing restorative & endodontic procedures. The Department is equipped with clinical under-graduate & post-graduate sections with models and charts for the purpose of students & patient education and motivation.
The section of Conservative dentistry and Endodontics has a wide range of activities covering following aspects;
- Preclinical operative dentistry
- Undergraduate clinical operative dentistry
- Aesthetic dentistry
- Endodontics
We aspire to:
- To train students to a level of competence in restoration, rehabilitation and maintenance of the dentition.
- To encourage students to undertake independent research and to develop an aptitude to practice innovative treatment protocols..
