When I started this course , I thought I would be dealing with Chemistry and Biology again , but to my surprise it was not as bad as I thought . We were dealing with the usual science stuff , but this time we had the chance to even participate in the experiments !
In Physiology , we pricked our own fingers for blood and we observed them under the microscope provided . We learnt how to separate our blood cells . I didnt even knew that was possible . Then we had Biochemistry , where we learnt about this chemistry stuff that leads to molecular changes in our body . We had hands on training on how to diagnose a patient suffering from diseases by observing their urine ! How cool is that :)
In Anatomy , we were first instructed to buy our real own personal human skull .
I named him Ramu :)
After a few weeks , we were introduced to the dead bodies in the Anatomy Lab that we were supposed to observe . It was kind of freaky at first but we got used to it after a few weeks .
This is how the Human Brain looks like
Then we had Oral Histology , where we studied about the 32 teeths in our mouth . We had to actually carve the design of the tooth on wax blocks provided to study the morphology and the shape of the tooth . It was kind of irritating at first but we got the hold of it after a few months .
The end product of our carving !!
We were then introduced to Prosthodontics , which is the art of replacing missing teeths in the mouth by the means of dentures and etc .
We started fabricating dentures , it was an irritating process at first but still , we managed to catch up on it :)
This is the process where we had to arrange teeth in position before we transfered it to the denture
This is the teeth in the cast of the patient
Fabrication of the Occlusal Rims , which will house the teeth in the denture
Mind the bad work , they are just exercises and are not related to any patient
We were then introduced to Endodonticts , which was the art of repairing a tooth ! It was fun . Finally we had the chance to drill holes with our equipments =)
The plaster models of the teeths that we operated upon
We dealt with alot of handworks and it was more like a arts class . We had to draw images of cells and colour it and stuff
I have alot of pictures of the dead bodies and their organs but I dont wanna take a risk of posting them here ;)
Guess thats all for today , Take care
Till the next post =)
