Dentistry is no more restricted to extractions and restorations of teeth but have an important role to play in designing the smile and improving the aesthetics of the patient. The increased demand for aesthetics in dentistry encouraged me to register for the certificate course in cosmetic dentistry at Dr. Rajat Sachdeva’s dental institute in Ashok Vihar.
I have been running my general practice for the last 5 years but never have I seen a surge in my patient’s inflow before. It has not only increased my confidence but also improved my work-life balance. The knowledge that I have gained during this course is more than precious and I know I am going to cherish it forever.
As far as the course is concerned, we had multiple sessions and each one was thorough in its true sense. We learnt about the concepts of smile designing, golden ratio, bleaching, composite restorations and veneers. We were being taught by a group of well-known academics and it was an honor to have shared the same platform as them. They constantly shared their clinical cases and personal experiences with us, which made us look forward to every session.
Based on what we learn in dental colleges, the common approach towards treating any case in our clinic is to directly start away with it, but during this program, we learnt the importance of visualizing the end result of our treatment plan before we even begin with it. This not only acts as a guide for the dentist but also build confidence in the patients and helps them accept the treatment willfully.
I would also like to acknowledge the fact that the study material and equipment provided to each one of us was of high quality and standards. This motivated us to follow the same protocol in our clinics as well.
This institute is one of the handful of good ones in the country where you are guaranteed an unadulterated and ethical education.
