Dentistry is considered as that division of medicine that involves the study of various problems and treatments related to oral care. Dentists hold an important position in the health care system. They are professionals who diagnose, detect, conduct treatment or prevent any diseases or abnormality that may affect the oral cavity. The primary duty of a dentist is to instruct and encourage the patients to keep the oral hygiene, since most of the oral related problems are caused due to the poor dental hygiene.

BDS is the undergraduate programme offered by many universities in India. This five degree programme covers many theory as well as the practical subjects related with dentistry. After the successful completion of this bachelor’s degree, one can find jobs in any government or private hospitals as dentists. The various areas of their employment are

  • Government hospital
  • Reputed dental colleges

  • Industries manufacturing oral care products and medicines like toothpastes, mouth washes, gum paints etc.
  • Forensic department
  • Research on related subjects like Oral cancer

Jobs in Government Sector

There are many career opportunities for the BDS graduates in the government sectors. They can get employment through various government examinations such as UPSC, State PSCs, SSC, Public sector banks, etc. They are also recruited by other departments like Railways, Defense and Ordnance factories for the hospitals run by them. At the entry level the BDS graduates can practice as dentist in government hospitals, private nursing homes, corporate or industrial hospitals.
