BDS course is a valuable diamond as oral diseases are major health problems faced by public. Dentistry is creating many opportunities and challenges nowadays because of the emerging awareness among the people regarding their importance on oral health problems. The introduction of pathology and orthodontics has now increased the scope in this field. BDS graduates can work as self-employed practitioners in general providing dental care to the public or in salaried posts in various areas such as in hospital and community dentistry, armed forces, corporate practices, industry or university teaching and research.
    Those BDS graduates who would like to continue their studies can go further with the post-graduation degree in Dentistry known to be MDS (Master of Dental Surgery) which is offered by many institutions.
