FROM THE H.O.D. DESK
My goal for students is not for them to learn quantitatively but qualitatively. The department comprises of persons with diverse training, teaching, patient care, research and service; serving the dental community through continuing education programs. I strive for them to be better doctors that impartially serve the best for their patients and achieve a balance between patient satisfaction and correct treatment.
