72nd Indian Dental Conference

72nd Indian Dental Conference

Published by: Dr.Denise Fernandes

Our team of doctors had the opportunity to attend the Indian Dental Conference,2019. The conference was in Indore, which is in Madhya Pradesh. It was an insightful experience, as we had a chance to listen to different speakers from all over India. The topics were as varied as the speakers, from indirect pulp capping to Re- root canals.

 

 

 

Encouraged by Dr. Noronha, I set out to give a small talk on the topic of Post and Core. Since it was my first time presenting, it was a bit daunting but I put my best foot forward and went ahead. The experience was satisfying and I learned never to shirk away from challenges.

I also had the chance to meet a few of my professors and batch mates from my BDS days, it was nice to catch up on all  the college gossip. Not only did we get to listen to talks, but we also got to do a little sight seeing. We visited Mandu, which is an ancient city in Indore. The palaces and courtyards were picturesque and we had the chance of taking a lot of selfies.

We got to try a lot of the street food of  Indore like Shikanji (which is a local sweet) , Kachori (which is my favourite) and Tawa ice cream.


Overall the experience was Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!!!

We, Dr. Fernando Noronha’s team had attended the national conference which was the 72nd INDIAN DENTAL CONFERENCE 2019 held in Indore Madhya Pradesh.

There were numerous lectures held in the conference by  good Indian and International speakers on various topics which covered almost entire scope of dentistry right from basics to advanced dental problems and complications, treatments. The topics gave solutions for everyday problems, the latest technologies and innovations in dental fields.

I enjoyed  many lectures for the upcoming dentists as well as on the future of dentistry.

The lectures were very useful and informative. We got to learn many new things on dentistry.

I had an amazing experience attending the conference . Our team was fun , enthusiatic and energetic.

Due to the encouragement received from Dr. Fernando Noronha, I was able to give a presentation in front of a big crowd of dentists and judges. Initially I was scared and nervous with all butterflies in my stomach till I went on the dais. But all’s well that ends well… ended my presentation with a loud applause from the audience and appreciation from the judges and was also awarded with a certificate. It was a moment that I will cherish throughout my life.

First time in my life I gave a dental presentation,  that too at a national level forum. It was an awesome experience.

At the inaugural function there was a lovely entertainment program which i enjoyed.

Apart from this we also got a chance to visit different beautiful historic places in Indore which had a mesmerizing view and also had experience of the delicious Indore food.

Overall we had a very nice time learnt many new things new experience in life and I’m glad to be a part of Dr. Noronha’s team.

Italy CDE (Continued Dental Education)

Italy CDE (Continued Dental Education)

Going to Italy was a first time for me. The excitement of the Italian architecture , the famous cathedrals (Dom) and the immense artistic inheritance of the place led me to hone in to attended a hands-on dental course in Bologna, Italy.

I was lucky to train with Rhein 83, an international company specialising in Precision attachments for Removable Dentures. I also did an advanced course in the application of  Sports Guards &  Aligners for correction of malaligned teeth.

 

After 5 days of training, I set to explore the cities of Venice (islands of Murano and Burano) and Florence. Travelled extensively by train and the famous vaporatti (ferry) services with ease, absorbing everything this country had to offer; from intricate handmade glass (millie fleuri) to artists capturing a moment on blank canvases in colours so vibrant and shapes so perfect.

 

So in awe of the architecture as I walked into cathedrals that were 100’s of years old and marvelled at the history and how well they’ve been protected and restored to their previous glory. The cobble- streets of Italy made my solo travels an adventure trip, made new friends and memories to cherish.

Stories of 2018…

1) Indian Dental Conference in Bhubaneshwar, Orissa was held in Feb 2018. The theme was “Accelerating Innovation, Fostering advances”. Dr. Fernando presented a scientific paper on “the restoration of teeth with poor prognosis and the use of custom cast posts for their management”.

Dr. Roshni Fernandes also spoke on ” The use and correct application of Antibiotics in Dentistry “. Both the presentations were well attended and received.

 

2) Dr. Noronha’s Dental Clinic welcomes  Dr. Kunti Makwana to join our team. An excellent clinician with working experience in a practice in Panjim, She brings with her a pleasant personality, commitment to serve and positive attitude to learning and growing in this work-space. In the past 6 months she has proved to be dedicated and has taken over various tasks independently …. a real value addition.

3) Indian dentist from the USofA, Dr. Ajit Patel, a senior consultant orthodontist visited us and shared his expertise and time with us. It was a great honour interacting and sharing some quality time with him. We look forward to more such enriching encounters.

International Dental Show, Cologne 2017, an event that was phenomenally large, impressively set-up and simply awe-inspiring.

Dentists, Dental technicians and Dental Traders from all over the globe, all under an enormous roof called Koelnmesse. 

An incredibly outstanding 5-day event had 12 halls each having over 100 booths, each noteworthy enough to make us curious and stop by for detailed information on newer products, lectures from very experienced dentists and practical hands-on demonstrations.

 

 

 

Some visual displays were simply eye-catching.

Dental meet at Bangkok

Dental meet at Bangkok

A Trip to Bangkok is always exciting. The anticipation of the sights, culture, shopping, shows and massages  all add to the excitement. Dr. Anagha and myself were looking forward to the visit to the famous Chulalongkorn University campus on their 75th anniversary year.
img_1336With a fantastic line up of lectures and presentations by the faculty of Dentistry at the university campus, and a visit to the museums of human anatomy and the dental campus, it was an awesome experience. The college is a very advanced complex of buildings housing different specialities and well networked to provide the best care to the patients there. Some times Free dental treatments are provided  to patients on various occasions or on the request of the Queen.

The country was in mourning during this time, because of the passing away of their beloved King, but life was pretty normal and the sentiment was felt in the dress of the “Aam Admi”. they all wore black, some on their arms, or tops or dresses or whatever. It was seen everywhere.

A visit to the GOLDEN Buddha, the weekly market at Chatuchak, and a trip to Pattaya sealed the trip for everyone. As for the massage…… I’ll tell you later sometime 🙂 🙂
