BDS

I don't have any clarity on MBBS/BDS/agriculture in a government college admission. But I would love to share a practical alternative: IIM SKILLS digital marketing master course: it is a fully online, live instructor-led program, built with industrial experts and A.I integration, the course duration is 3 to 7 months with a 2-month guaranteed internship of 6,000  stipend per month. They also assure 100% placement support along with 15+ globally accredited certifications preparation.

Yes, simulation labs are increasingly incorporated in BDS training. These labs allow students to practice dental procedures in a controlled environment before working on real patients.

Simulation includes using dental mannequins, virtual reality systems, and digital tools to replicate clinical scenarios. This helps students refine hand skills, improve accuracy, and develop decision-making abilities, reducing errors and enhancing patient safety once they transition to clinical practice.

Yes, practical labs are integral to most BDS subjects. Labs provide hands-on training in procedures like cavity preparation, crown fabrication, and periodontal techniques, reinforcing theoretical knowledge.

Students practice clinical skills under supervision, using models, extracted teeth, and simulation equipment. This ensures that they gain confidence, precision, and familiarity with dental instruments, preparing them for real patient care during clinical rotations and internships.

In BDS, Dental anatomy is taught through a combination of theoretical lectures and hands-on practical sessions. Students study the structure, shape, and function of teeth, jaws, and oral tissues, understanding variations in dental morphology.
