On 22 May 2025, six dental students from MAHER, accompanied by Dr. R. Anitha, Deputy Registrar (Administration), participated in Day 5 of the USIM Dental Boot Camp at the Faculty of Dentistry, Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia (USIM), Nilai, Malaysia.
The day began with a Clinical Observership, where students observed procedures in oral surgery, orthodontics, and endodontics. They also learned about sterilization protocols and the organization of dental operatories.
In the afternoon, Dr. Annurdin Bin conducted a session on implantology, followed by a live demonstration of piezoelectric surgery using an eggshell model. Students then participated in a hands-on sinus lift simulation and observed the preparation of Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) and Concentrated Growth Factor (CGF) from a student volunteer’s blood sample.
Dr. Anitha also delivered a guest lecture on “CBCT – Basics of Interpretation” to USIM’s final-year dental students, which was well-received.
The visit provided valuable clinical exposure and strengthened academic collaboration between MAHER and USIM.
