Overview
The department of Oral & Maxillofacial Pathology and Oral Microbiology focuses its
efforts on academics, research, and investigative procedures. The department is one of the
best equipped colleges in the country and is also well staffed to provide the very best
academic training for undergraduates. The department teaches undergraduate students Dental
Anatomy, Embryology, Oral Histology, Oral Pathology, and Microbiology. For the
undergraduate training programme, the department has cutting-edge facilities such as a
museum and a diagnostic histopathology centre. Research is an integral part of the
department and the thrust areas of research include potentially malignant disorders,
Odontogenic cysts, tumours and bio-alternatives in histopathology. As part of patient care,
the laboratory provides oral diagnostic histopathology services as well as histopathologic
examination of submitted biopsy.
Vision
To be a leading centre for academic excellence, histopathological innovations, diagnosis, patient
care
and research.
Mission
To provide excellent training in normal oral and paraoral anatomy, histology, and embryology
We impart training in the art of carving the morphology of teeth, which helps students in
restorative
techniques.
To provide knowledge on the pathologic basis of oral and dental diseases for effective clinical
intervention.
To teach the students about basic concepts of microscopy and its applications in histology,
histopathology, cytology and haematology.
To guide the students in diagnosing the common disorders of the orofacial region by
histopathological
examination.

Equipments
Trinocular Microscope with Digital Camera
A trinocular microscope allows for the user to take pictures, record videos, which can be saved for
future references. This is also a big advantage given that such still images and videos can give more
details after repeated observations. In a clinical setting, this is particularly beneficial given that
health care professionals can digitally share the images/videos with other professionals for
consultation and more analysis.
For teaching purposes (e.g. microscopy), a trinocular microscope also presents an advantage given
that an instructor can show the students what he/she is looking at, or observe how the student is
using the microscope. On the other hand, it can also be used for presentation purposes either in
academic of professional settings, allowing others to participate in the viewing of the specimen.
