WHAT IS BS Dental Technology
The BS Dental Technology program is designed to train students in the design, construction, and repair of dental and orofacial prostheses and appliances. The curriculum focuses on advanced knowledge of dental materials, fabrication techniques, and modern laboratory procedures. Students gain hands-on experience in fabricating crowns, bridges, dentures, orthodontic devices and other clinical aids like maxillofacial prosthesis, Surgical Stents etc using cutting-edge technology. Students also gain proficiency in modern technologies such as Computer-Aided Design/Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAD/CAM). Graduates are equipped to work in dental laboratories, hospitals, and clinics or pursue further specialization. The program also prepares students for global opportunities by aligning with international standards in dental technology.
