Dr. Harvansh Singh Judge Institute of Dental Sciences & Hospital, Chandigarh

In view of an imminent need for providing a public funded quality oral health care set up to impart dental education and open avenues for research in the field of Oral Health, a Dental Sciences Institute & Hospital was essential. Hence, under the aegis of Panjab University with philanthropic donations from Dr. Harvansh Singh Judge, was established Dr. Harvansh Singh Judge Institute of Dental Sciences & Hospital in April, 2006. The Institute aims at providing excellent oral health care facilities to the general public in addition to undergraduate training to students. It has the ability to generate ample research avenues in dental / medical sciences which can have a far reaching impact on not only oral but general health with special thrust on community healthcare and outreach programs for the children and the underserved population.
