The Department of Public Health Dentistry and the Department of Pediatric & Preventive Dentistry at Index Institute of Dental Sciences jointly organized a Doctor’s Day Celebration and Oral Health Awareness Program on 1st July 2026, welcoming 126 students from Mount Index International School for an engaging and educational experience. The event was organized under the visionary leadership of Shri Suresh Singh Bhadoria, Chairman, Mayank Welfare Foundation, and the dynamic guidance of Mr. Mayankraj Singh Bhadoria, Vice Chairman, Mayank Welfare Foundation, whose unwavering commitment to quality healthcare and community welfare continues to inspire such meaningful initiatives. The program commenced with a warm welcome address by the faculty members, who highlighted the significance of Doctor’s Day and encouraged students to adopt healthy oral hygiene practices from an early age. The initiative reflected the institute’s continued commitment to preventive dental care and community outreach.
The awareness session featured informative and child-friendly presentations on maintaining good oral hygiene, emphasizing the importance of brushing teeth twice a day, following the correct tooth-brushing technique, consuming a balanced diet, and visiting a dentist regularly. Faculty members and postgraduate students interacted enthusiastically with the children, addressing their questions and clearing common misconceptions related to dental health. A special Doctor’s Day celebration paid tribute to the selfless dedication, compassion, and tireless service of healthcare professionals, inspiring students to appreciate the noble role doctors play in protecting and improving lives. The interactive format encouraged active participation, making the session both educational and enjoyable while instilling lifelong oral hygiene habits among the young learners.
Following the awareness program, all participating students underwent a comprehensive oral health screening conducted by the expert dental team. Each child received personalized oral hygiene instructions based on their dental examination, along with preventive care guidance to maintain healthy teeth and gums. The screening helped identify common oral health concerns at an early stage and enabled timely recommendations for further dental care wherever required. The program successfully combined education, celebration, and preventive healthcare, leaving students with valuable knowledge and greater awareness about oral wellness. Through such impactful community outreach initiatives, Index Institute of Dental Sciences continues to uphold its commitment to excellence in dental education, patient care, preventive dentistry, and social responsibility while promoting healthier smiles and building a more health-conscious future generation.
