Has it started ?

Are seats increased this year or same as last yr? Any idea would help making a rough idea ..

Carry the annexure 1 and fill everything except the details regarding the college youre joining, it does not have to be notarized just a plain a4 sheet print is sufficient. You have to also carry your state council validity certificate, for KSDC just login to your profile and you will find it in the recipt section.

I tried calling their helpline and they themselves don’t know when seat matrix will be released and are asking us to wait.
I asked to talk with higher officials and she asked me to mail my concern on their email id 🙄😪😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤

I’m joining MDS 1st year soon and wanted to hear from current/recent MDS residents about what faculty, departments and seniors expect a fresher to already know on Day 1, across both clinical and non-clinical specialties.

I have a considerable gap after BDS/internship and haven’t been in clinical practice since then, so I’m quite out of touch with the clinical side and want to prepare myself beforehand.

- Which BDS subjects/concepts should be strong?

- How much clinical knowledge, diagnosis and treatment planning is expected?

- Are we expected to remember instruments, materials, procedures and protocols?

- How much should we know about case history, examination and investigations?

- What academic/research knowledge is expected?

- What do faculty/seniors generally expect during the first few months?

- What are freshers commonly surprised to be expected to know?

- And what are we not expected to know when we first join?

Would really appreciate insights from current/recent MDS residents, especially regarding how much is expected from someone who has been out of clinical practice for a few years.

Neither they released seat matrix nor they r opening registration link🫠

Hello,based on my previous comments a lot of you young dentists have been texting me asking me the same questions..So i will just post it here

About me(mds omfs gdc mumbai batch 2013-2016)

1)Choose the branch which will help you earn the most and always do it from a good college

2)Fellowships after OMFS are utter useless and sooner or later you have to return to clinic..

I did fellowships in trauma,facial surgeries but again hospitals hire only Ms(general surgeon or ents) or senior professors or hods for maxillofacial cases and most of them are only done in hospitals..u cant do those things in your clinic..also expenditure to start something like that is around crores.

Thus had to give up and start my own clinic..a lot of u ask about omfs so just wanted to keep it clear..dont jump into this field because of your obsession with mbbs..Now whats the point of learning something if you cant do them

3)Most of my income is from implants,fmr and ortho

Personally if I had to make a decision i would choose the fields which bring the most money through cases

Prostho>Ortho>Endo above all

Pedodontists are also doing incredibly well as parents are now more concerned

Phd is also great if u want non clinical..Few of my friends are now working abroad and live an amazing life

4)Every college is toxic to some or the other level
Grow up doctors..life isnt easy

5)Good communication skills are extremely important..U might have done your mds from maids but at the end of the day 80% of dentistry is about converting patients..thus if you are horrible at being a people person,sorry to say but your clinic wont do well

6)Competition and market is extremely saturated..So before spending money on private and deemed seats that cost a fortune..remember that first 4-5 years you will be struggling

7)To all those who asked if Mds is important

No…At the end of the day it all matters is how much your clinic fills your pockets

The number of mds grads passing out every year is huge..so if you are a bds grad thinking of opening a clinic..hire them for consultation..Lots of pgs are looking for work so utilise them rather than jumping into the same pool after spending so much money

*****Location of your clinic is most important..You cant convince patients if no patients show up

Hope I have. answered most of the doubts
Thank you
All the best docs
