The mission of department of periodontics is to provide excellence and innovation in education, patient care and scientific research in our specialized field.
It has separate Under Graduate as well as Post Graduate sections complete with dental chairs, equipped with all instruments and materials required for comprehensive dental care of patients.
The Post Graduate Clinic is bolstered with cutting edge facilities including soft tissue LASER, Peizosurgical unit, Dental Loupes and Electrocautery.
Advanced Periodontal Regenerative Procedures, Perioplastic surgeries, Preposthetic surgeries are regularly carried out with the help of an adequately stocked department store with materials including synthetic bone graft materials, regenerative and barrier membranes along with Centrifuge Machine for preparation of Platelet Rich Fibrin used to carry out advanced perio regenerative procedures.
We also have state of art Implant clinic with RVG , meant not only for implant placements but also for hard and soft tissue augmentation procedures for optimum function as well as esthetic restoration of patients, the primary goal of department. The single minded aim is to provide patient care with utmost precision and compassion as well as educate them about the importance of personal oral hygiene.
The infection control is ensured by a separate sterilization room following a stringent protocol for care of instruments.
The process of teaching and learning is the heart of education. With this in mind the department has remarkable infrastructural facilities and a dedicated teaching faculty meant to benefit the students to the fullest.
Integrated department library has a vast collection of books, student library dissertation and journals and seminars. The department has a straight of art seminar room with all the audio visual facility which enhance the educational experience of the students.
Greetings and welcome to the department of Periodontics and Oral implantology. The department of Periodontics provides advanced instruction and clinical experience in the management of the periodontium and dental implants in health and disease. This includes etiology, diagnosis, prevention and treatment of periodontal diseases and surgical placement of implants, treatment of periimplant disease and implant maintainence. The full spectrum of currently available biological materials is used to ensure the regeneration of bone and soft tissue around teeth and insite development for implant placement.
The department aims to continue developing basic and clinical research in dental implantology, novel bone regenerative technologies and the development of innovative approaches to treat periodontal diseases by modulating the immune system. There is integration of innovative techniques with conservative treatment approaches resulting in excellent treatment outcomes and a high standard of quality care.
The community is served by the various camps organized by the department. It is our endeavour to ensure that the students learn all aspects of Periodontics and apply it in their clinical practice.
