Salient Features of the book
• Competency-based (CBDE) chapters mapped to the revised curriculum, competency-wise.
• Clinically oriented question-and-answer chapters framed in the pattern now being asked in the Second Professional BDS examination.
• Complete practical section covering the entire prescribed practical schedule with procedure, principle and interpretation.
• Multiple choice questions, including those of NEET-MDS standard, for self-assessment and revision.
• Illustrations and colour plates chosen to aid recall and recognition, not merely to decorate the page.
• Glossary of microbiology and dental terms with definitions and a detailed subject index for rapid reference.
This title is conceived to be the first single volume in which the conventional syllabus, the competency based curriculum, clinical question–answer material, the complete practical schedule and examination-oriented MCQs have all been brought together between the two covers. The student does not need to assemble knowledge from four or five scattered sources.
