About Department

PG section of Periodontology is well-equipped and highly specialized unit that deals with advanced periodontal conditions, partial edentulism & periodontal management of critical care patients.

It facilitates new therapeutic goals and clinical techniques including dental implants and LASER dentistry along with reconstruction and regeneration of lost periodontal structures and creation of aesthetics as integral part of clinical practice. The department has developed a clinical manual consisting of “Standard Operating Procedure” with a far sited visionary approach for every sector.

Periodontology as a course curriculum in the under graduate & post graduate program is designed to provide a strong theoretical and clinical background in periodontology enabling the students to treat all forms of periodontal disease on a biologically rationale basis.

The students become thoroughly familiar with the periodontal literature and receive broad clinical experiences in examination, diagnosis, prognosis, treatment, and maintenance of the patients. Students are also getting training to critically evaluate pertinent literature; to communicate effectively with dental colleagues, other health professionals and patients. As their routine academic curriculum, clinical cases, assignments ,seminars (PPT presentation)& projects (models& chart) for patient education and motivation are given to undergraduates.. Also, there is provision for remedial classes for slow learners as well as need-based problem-solving facility are also available. Continuous evaluation of knowledge, attitude and skill inculcated in students is monitored through OSCE/ OSPE basis on monthly basis.

Beside the commitment to provide high quality periodontal health care, faculty of the department are engaged in the active research and other activities for the innovations in response to the changing demographics and oral health needs of people, which is rewarding in terms of research publications in National and International Journals of high repute and many professional recognitions. In order to inculcate research acumen and enhance analytical skills original case study or epidemiological study based projects are mandate at undergraduate levels.

The Continuing Education Program (CDE) through audio-visual aids, didactic lectures, hands-on activity, stimulation training, webinars and live surgical demonstrations etc. on various topics relevant to periodontology and dental practice management is mandate part of the curriculum. A tentative list of such programs for year 2019 is given below:

  • Laser in Periodontology.
  • Evidence Based Dentistry.
  • Soft & hard tissue grafting procedure.
  • Research Methodology.
  • Medical Emergency in Periodontal Therapy (CPR, BLS).
