We celebrated International Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Day with an event that highlighted the significance of oral health awareness and community welfare. The day focused on educating the public about the critical role of early detection in preventing oral cancer and the life-saving impact of blood donation. Dr. Mamta Singh, the Head of the Department (HOD) of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, led the initiative with a vision to raise awareness and provide essential information about oral health risks. Through various educational programs and health check-ups, our team of expert surgeons, faculty, and students educated the community about recognizing early signs of oral cancer and how timely interventions can greatly improve patient outcomes.
The event also included an important blood donation drive, emphasizing the contribution each individual can make in saving lives. Dr. Mamta Singh, along with other faculty members, encouraged participants to donate blood, stressing how even one donation could help multiple patients in dire need of blood transfusions. This part of the initiative reflected our commitment not only to clinical excellence but also to community well-being. By aligning the message of oral cancer awareness with the critical need for blood donation, the event was an impactful reminder of the positive difference we can make in the lives of others.
As part of the celebration, students and faculty members actively participated in outreach programs, reinforcing the institute’s mission to improve public health through education and social responsibility. Dr. Singh, along with her team, continues to inspire future oral surgeons to contribute to both their professional growth and societal welfare.We remain dedicated to advancing knowledge, enhancing dental and surgical care, and fostering a compassionate approach to community health.
