Orthodontia

Orthodontics envisages the merging of biology with technology creating the harmonious face by the movement of teeth and / or the modulation of growth.

The hoary tradition of excellence is propagated with the imparting and practice of sound basics, so that the student can handle the entire of gamut of malocclusions be it with the humble "removable plate" or sophisticated "invisible braces", from the preventive to the corrective integrating specialised surgical procedures, and from treating growing children to adults.

The credo of selecting the appropriate appliance or treatment modality for a patient rather than straight jacketing patients for an appropriate system is adhered to.

The rich experience of an erudite faculty supported by auxillary dental personnel is the "jewel in the crown" of the department and is its greatest asset.
