Build Your Future with MDS in Public Health Dentistry

About MDS in Public Health Dentistry

MDS in Public Health Dentistry is a postgraduate dental specialisation that focuses on improving oral health at the community and population level rather than treating individual patients. It deals with the prevention and control of oral diseases, promotion of oral hygiene, and planning public health programmes to address dental health issues on a large scale. The duration of MDS in Public Health Dentistry in India is typically 3 years. 

Students pursuing this programme learn about epidemiology, biostatistics, preventive dentistry, and healthcare management, enabling them to design and implement dental health policies, awareness campaigns, and community outreach programs. Graduates can work in government health departments, academic institutions, NGOs, or research organisations, contributing to better oral health awareness and preventive care in society.

MDS in Public Health Dentistry at TMU is designed to prepare students for community-based oral healthcare, preventive dentistry, and public health leadership. TMU provides structured clinical infrastructure, experienced faculty, and a hospital-based learning environment, helping students build confidence in both academic and fieldwork settings.

TMU’s dental department actively conducts school dental programs, tobacco cessation drives, fluoride application camps, and oral health education campaigns, which help students gain practical experience beyond classroom learning.
