HOD MESSAGE



Welcome to the Department of Public Health Dentistry at Sree Balaji Dental College and Hospital!


The Department of Public Health Dentistry plays a vital role in shaping the next generation of socially responsible dental professionals. Our focus is on promoting oral health at the community level and training undergraduate students to understand and address the broader determinants of oral diseases.


Our undergraduate program is designed to provide a strong foundation in preventive and community dentistry. Students gain hands-on experience through school dental health programs, oral health education activities, tobacco cessation initiatives, and rural outreach camps conducted regularly by the department. We also provide opportunities to participate in mobile dental unit services and community-based surveys, helping students translate theoretical knowledge into real-world impact.


The department is equipped with modern facilities and led by dedicated faculty who mentor students through both classroom learning and field-based training. Emphasis is placed on understanding epidemiological trends, public health policies, and the planning and implementation of community oral health programs.


We welcome you to explore our department and become part of the learning journey that extends beyond the dental chair—into the heart of the communities we serve.
