I am going to give you a quick rundown on the MDS course before we get into the specific details of the MDS admissions process in Haryana. After earning a BDS or undergraduate degree in dentistry, one can pursue a three-year postgraduate program called the Masters of Dental Surgery, or MDS. 

There are nine dental specialties available for specialization in this course: Public Health Dentistry, Orthodontics, Prosthodontics, Conservative Dentistry and endodontics, Pedodontics, Periodontology, Oral Medicine and radiology, and Oral Pathology and microbiology.

Every year, candidates who have completed their BDS course and wish to apply for post-graduation are given the opportunity to apply for MDS admission through the NEET-MDS Exam. 


Basics of MDS Admission

For all the dental colleges except Manav Rachna Dental College and MM Dental College, the counseling is conducted by Pandit Bhagwat Dayal Sharma University of Health Sciences, Rohtak, on behalf of the Directorate of Medical Education and Research, Haryana.

The MDS admissions process for Manav Rachana Dental College and MM Dental College is conducted by the Medical Counseling Committee of India (MCCI) along with all other deemed universities through All-India NEET MDS Counseling.
