Vision

 

The BMSU faculty of dentistry aim to become an efficient and competitive center in terms of education, research, and clinical practice in the field of oral health at both national and international levels. In line with our organizational mission, we strive to educate students with scientific, clinical, and research capabilities, while also meeting and employing the needs of education and research faculty and specialized healthcare professionals.

 

Given the rising incidence of head and neck injuries due to mass disaster, wars and accidents, establishing a center dedicated to head and neck care for the acceptance, treatment, and rehabilitation of all injuries related to this area, including the jaw and face, has been set as a vision for this faculty. Consequently, training specialized personnel in oral and maxillofacial surgery, facial prosthetics, and relevant treatments—closely related to Periodontics, Endodontics, and management of facial pain—has become our key focus.
