Overview
About Malabar Dental College & Research Centre
Malabar Dental College & Research Centre is a dental college in Malappuram, Kerala, established in 2007. Malabar Dental College & Research Centre is privately managed and self-financing. It is affiliated to Kerala University of Health Sciences. Its programmes are approved by the DCI. Malabar Dental College & Research Centre offers 2 programmes. They are Diploma in Dental Operating Room Assistance (Dora) and Master of Dental Surgery (MDS). The stated sanctioned intake across these programmes totals 20 seats. Official sources identify Malabar Dental College & Research Centre as a private dental college at Manoor-Chekannur Road, Edappal, Malappuram, affiliated with Kerala University of Health Sciences and recognised by the Dental Council of India. The college website states BDS and MDS offerings; its BDS page states that BDS intake was increased to 100 in 2014, but this is historical and not treated as a 2026-27 sanctioned intake. The college website states that BDS began under the University of Calicut in 2007 and transferred to KUHS in 2010; it also inconsistently says KUHS affiliation since 2006. The 2025-26 KUHS document confirms current affiliation. The official site describes the institution as recognized by the Dental Council of India, while the opened DCI college list identifies it as a private college established in 2007-08. No 2026-27 BDS regulator or state seat matrix was located in the opened sources; 2025-26 state figures and the 2026 MDS seat document are recorded only as dated evidence.
