About
Conservative Dentistry is the art and science of the diagonosis, treatment and prognosis of defect of teeth that do not require full coverage restorations for correction
Such treatment should result in the restoration of proper tooth, function and esthetics, while maintaining the physiologic integrity of the teeth in harmonious relationship with the adjacent hard and soft tissues, all of which should enhance the general health and welfare of the patient.
Endodontics is the branch of dentistry which is concerned with morphology, Physiology and pathology of human dental pulp and peri-radicular tissues. Its study and practice encompasses the basic and clinical science including the biology of normal pulp and etiology, diagnosis, prevention and treatment of disease, and injuries of pulp and associated peri-radicular condition, and also including, the procedures like bleaching of discolored teeth and endodontic implants.
The Department of Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics at HDC aims to maintain standards in teaching the undergraduate and postgraduate students and in treating the patients. Department has dedicated teaching and nonteaching staff with excellent infrastructure to deliver effective services to patients. The department is equipped with advanced dental chairs, latest dental equipment, operating microscopes and clinical materials. We provide plentitude of treatments ranging from direct and indirect tooth restorations, esthetic veneers, aesthetic rehabilitation, smile designing, vital and non-vital bleaching, non-surgical root canal treatment, retreatment of failed endodontically treated teeth and surgical endodontics with dental operating microscopes. Department library is equipped with updated editions of all the textbooks, national and international journals.
Aims and Objectives
The objective of undergraduate/postgraduate program in the department is to emphasize the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of defects of the teeth which includes caries involving different hard tissues of the teeth, wasting diseases of teeth, pulpal, periapical diseases and also post endodontic rehabilitation. Special emphasis is given to rehabilitation of the form, function and esthetics of the teeth.
- Department of Conservative Dentistry & Endodontics stresses the significance of infection and cross-infection control in dental practice. Aspects like sources of infection, measures to be adopted both general and specific for control including bacterial, viral and fungal infections is incorporated into the curriculum so that the undergraduates are aware of the significance of the infection control and follow it in their practice.
- Before entering the clinical department, students are divided into small groups to enable microteaching and are thoroughly trained in the preclinical exercises.
- Case history will be discussed and a comprehensive treatment plan is formulated, thus enabling patient centric participatory learning by the students.
- Adequate audio visual aids and computer assisted learning aids are available in the department and internet facility in the central library is provided to encourage their academic training.
- The undergraduates, post graduates in the Department are encouraged to acquire minimum computer proficiency which will enable them to enhance their professional knowledge and skills.
- Students are encouraged to participate in research work and the system of electives. Facilities are provided for research thereby encouraging undergraduate and postgraduate students.
- Interdisciplinary research is encouraged to bring in integration among various specialties. The teaching and training methodology is such that the students are motivated to think and indulge in self-study, rather than playing a passive role.
- In addition, the students are encouraged to attend conferences at the state and national level, workshops, seminars and activities which help in upgrading their knowledge and skills. The faculty of the Department of Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics not only mentor the students during their study and presentations but also accompany them for attending the quality improvement programmes.
- Ph.D. Curriculum is a 4 year part time or 3 year full term course incorporated with an affiliation and recognized center under Atal Medical and Health University with certified Ph.D. Guides for the training the preterm research fellow into a full fledge research scholar.
