In the Department
of Conservation Dentistry and Endodontics we stress mainly on the timely
intervention to arrest the process of dental decay and restore the tooth
to its form and function with aesthetic considerations.
The main procedures done in the department are :
- Restorative procedures with materials like Sliver amalgam
- Tooth coloured restorative materials like ceramic, composite and glass
ionomer.
- Single sitting root canal treatment with advanced rotary instruments
- Full crowns for root canal treated prepared in our own state of the
ceramic labs.
- Post and core
- Aesthetic procedures like bleaching and veneering.
Our clinical wing is equipped with around 20 dental chairs, computerised
X-rays with intraoral camera, apex locator, X-ray machine for intraoral
periodical radiographs light cure equipment and electric pulp tester.
From Second Year BDS onwards, Preclinical lab procedures are taught and
students are required to refine their pre-clinical skills on phantom
heads after a thorough knowledge of dental caries, needs and methods to
restore teeth and materials used.
In the Third Year and Final Year clinical postings for the students we
have specific requisites on the number and type of cases to be done
under the supervision of our outstanding faculty.
The Internship period of 6 weeks in the department comprises of rigorous
training specially endorsed to make the student well versed with
practicing Conservative Dentistry & Endodontics.
With an OPD of over 75 patients per day in the department, our aim is to
give the best possible patient care and satisfaction.
The Department of Conservative Dentistry & Endodonetics of Christian
Dental College caters to the needs of the masses and has grown
tremendously over the years. |
