|
| Vision |
| The Department Of Orthodontics & Dentofacial Orthopaedics intends to introduce Computerized Cephalometry with integrated diagnosis and treatment planning pre-programmed to perform routine analysis with speed, reliability and ease. The Department's future endeavour is use of Orthodontic Implants in order to overcome the limitations of intra-oral and extra-oral anchorage, which enhances patient co-operation, as it provides absolute anchorage. It will add a new dimension in the management of Orthodontic treatment. |
