Who Are We?
Hey everyone, welcome to dental Lightners!
When we used to be in our first year, we used to find it very difficult to study those big, fat books 😕. And obviously we couldn't go throw the entire book a day prior exam.
But unlike you guys we didn't had any other choice . We used to mug up the whole text and vomit the next day .
But you guys don't have to worry about it now 😁 .
We have created this blog solely with the purpose of helping all those dental students who are going through same problems as we were going through in our first year!
Here we provide concise , easy to understand ( even if you study at the the last moment) notes of different subjects!
Now your next and most obvious question would be
Why should we study your notes? Are they reliable?
We totally understand your concern and it's good to know the source from where you are learning.
Guys, we are students of one of the top most dental college of India,Christian Dental College, Ludhiana.
These notes are made from your standard textbooks.
To know their credibility you can compare them with your textbooks! It's always good to be sure ( "smiles")
