At Manav Rachna, we have a team of oral and maxillofacial surgeons from diverse training backgrounds who are experts in different subspecialties and work together for the benefit of our patients. We are also responsible for the didactic and clinical training of undergraduate dental students in the areas of local anesthesia, planning and execution of tooth extractions and minor oral surgery procedures in the out-patient setting, and understanding their role in diagnosis and management of more complex oral surgical problems. We are fully committed to ensuring the best possible patient care, training of undergraduate students and fulfilling our responsibility to the university, the community and our profession.
