Becoming A Prosthodontist – What to Expect

Prosthodontics is a major dental specialty. A prosthodontist specializes in making prosthesis and fake teeth. He/she focuses on restoring damaged and missing teeth with certain custom-made appliances like dentures, veneers, crowns, bridges. He/she is also the one to perform the popular ‘Dental Implant Surgery’. They could also help in treating facial anatomy abnormalities i.e. head & neck deformities.

Why to Visit a Prosthodontist?

A smile, healthy mouth and creating lost tooth have much value and importance, a Prosthodontist understands that. People respect & expect a great deal from Prosthodontists because of the type of surgeries they perform. Today’s world doesn’t have a shortage of look-conscious patients. It is really beneficial to consult a specialist when you have ‘reasonable doubt’ in your mind.

A general dentist could perform reconstructive work after a month-long course. But it really depends on your choice. Do you prefer a specialist with appropriate skills & knowledge or do you want a general treatment? A Prosthodontist’s experience is necessary during delicate surgeries.

What Prosthodontists Perform

A Prosthodontist performs a number of vital surgeries that are prominent in the profession. They go through a training procedure that gives them precise ways to deal with esthetic procedures. Some major services offered by them are:

  • Cosmetic dentistry
  • Replacing lost tooth
  • Special treatment of geriatric patients
  • Dental implant surgeries
  • Complex care management
  • Traumatic injuries
  • Maxillofacial prosthetic features like oral cancer reconstruction
  • Treating children with cleft palate/missing teeth

3 Tips To Perform Better In BDS Exams

BDS, Bachelor of Dental Surgery is one of the main dental courses in India. A good tip is not to take all the tips you find too seriously (No, that doesn’t mean that you can close this tab! Let me explain!).

There is plenty of advice for students on the internet – take a break every 45/ 40-90/ 40-50 minutes, cramming a couple of days before the exams don’t help (Not suggesting you to, but isn’t it what all students do?), and so on. You need to figure out what works for you.

Example: Whether you decide to revise till late in the night, or wake up early in the morning to do so when the exam is the next/same day depends on whether you are an owl or a lark.

Do use old examination papers (Question papers) to discover significant questions. A number of questions repeatedly appear over the years. Old question papers also throw light on important areas other questions may be asked from.

Try to keep your life sorted during exams – stress-inducing heartbreaks, arguments/ conflicts with loved ones, etc. are unbelievably distracting. During exams, try to be in a relaxed state of mind (Meditate if needed.) and approach studying with pure concentration. If you have a gymming habit, it would help, since exercise helps relieve stress.

What Do Endodontists Do + Relevant Dental Courses In Delhi

If you are looking for dental training courses in Delhi, i.e. diploma courses after BDS, you must be knowing what endodontics is.

However, for the sake of the layman, let’s define the term – endodontics is the dental specialty that deals with the study and treatment of dental pulp. Dental pulp is the area of soft, living connective tissue & blood vessels, that lies under the strong, protective enamel and the main tooth portion, dentin.

The term endodontics is derived from the Greek words, ‘endo’ meaning inside, and ‘odont’ meaning tooth. Simply put, endodontists are root canal specialists. Since they specialize in it, endodontists are efficient in performing root canal therapy, treating cracked tooth syndrome and treating dental trauma.

A cracked tooth is the medical condition wherein a crack appears in a tooth, but no part of it breaks off. The crack often appears from the top to the bottom of the tooth. Dental trauma is usually the result of an accident or a sports-related injury.

At Dr. Bhutani’s dental academy, courses cover both ‘Extensive Endodontics’ and ‘Rotary Endodontics’. For greater detail, have a look at the topics covered under these on Our Courses page.

All our courses are aimed at improving the working skills of dentists. We achieve this by offering practical-oriented courses, that consist of several procedures and demos on patients. Eventually, you gain the confidence and ability to perform procedures independently.
