Our Dental College which began its journey in 2002, has grown over the years as per the guidelines of Medical Council of India. In our endeavour to provide the best of facilities we have put in all our efforts to get necessary feed back from as many a people as possible. The pan to host a website was very much in our mind and an effort was already on. I am indeed happy that it will be reality.
