Overview

Oral Pathologists play a crucial role in accurately diagnosing oral diseases before any treatment is initiated.

They possess extensive knowledge of the development, structure, and functions of the teeth, mouth, jaws, and associated tissues, both in healthy and diseased states. By understanding these intricacies, they are able to provide accurate diagnoses and treatment plans.

Overview

In addition to diagnosing diseases, Oral Pathologists also play a key role in promoting oral health awareness among the general population. By educating individuals on proper oral hygiene practices and the importance of regular dental check-ups, they work to prevent the onset of oral diseases before they occur.

Henceforth, the ultimate goal of the oral and maxillofacial pathology department at MGDCH is to train students who are well-equipped to recognise and diagnose a wide range of dental and oral diseases. These students are not only able to provide general dental treatment but also offer advice on specialised treatments.
