Department of Safe Dentistry was founded in August 2020 with the mission of ensuring safe dental practices across the country. The Department of Safe Dentistry is achieving this goal through cross infection control training workshops, awareness campaigns, webinars, and conferences. Through these activities, it is helping spread awareness regarding the importance of oral health and preventing the spread of infectious diseases in dental health care settings in Pakistan.

The Department plans to provide comprehensive training workshops accessible to all in order to further the mission of education of health care workers regarding infection control; thus, ensuring safe dental practices in the country. We aim to develop a system of regularization of private and public dental clinics and hospitals in regards to the level of minimum cross infection control protocols being implemented.
