- Ensuring the highest possible patient centric quality of care.
Preamble
Microscope enhanced restorative dentistry and endodontics is a science with an established theoretical and scientific base and widespread clinical applications in the restoration, rehabilitation, regeneration, maintenance and promotion of optimal function of the dental hard tissues, dental pulp and periradicular tissues. Micro restorative endodontists, study and practice the basic and clinical sciences including the biology of the human teeth, the etiology, diagnosis, prevention and treatment of diseases and injuries of the enamel, dentine, pulp and associated periradicular conditions. They diagnose and manage various restorative and endodontic scenarios using magnification tools. These practitioners contribute to society and the profession through practice, teaching, administration and the discovery and application of new knowledge about magnification techniques.
Learning experiences are provided under the guidance and supervision of competent faculty through workshops, contact sessions and learning assignments. The designed curriculum will prepare the restorative dentists and endodontists, to be an autonomous, effective, safe and a compassionate professional, who practices collaboratively in a variety of clinical and academic setups , responsive to the current and future needs of the restorative and endodontic health care system.
Vision:
