About Government Dental College, Ahmedabad
Government Dental College and Hospital, Ahmedabad is a dental college in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, established in 1963. Government Dental College and Hospital, Ahmedabad is government-run.

Government Dental College and Hospital, Ahmedabad offers 2 programmes, 1 at undergraduate level and 8 at postgraduate level. They are Bachelor of Dental Surgery and Master of Dental Surgery. The stated sanctioned intake across these programmes totals 166 seats. Official college sources identify GDCH Ahmedabad as a government dental institution established in 1963, at Civil Hospital Campus, Asarwa, Ahmedabad 380016. The SSR reports a 306-chair, 54-bed dental specialty teaching hospital, approximately 630 daily OPD patients and about 125 daily new admissions; the college homepage separately states OPD above 400. These are historical/undated institutional figures and are not treated as confirmed specifically for academic year 2026-27. The DCI search result confirms the Ahmedabad college-list identity, but the retrieved DCI detail page was for Hyderabad and therefore was not used for Ahmedabad-specific intake or permission figures. No reliable official 2026-27 permission, attendance percentage, current faculty breakdown, accreditation, or exact laboratory count was established. The official site and institutional SSR identify this as a government-run dental college affiliated with Gujarat University.
