About Meenakshi Ammal Dental College and Hospital
Meenakshi Ammal Dental College and Hospital is a dental college in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, established in 1990. It is affiliated to Meenakshi Academy of Higher Education and Research (MAHER). Its programmes are approved by the DCI. Meenakshi Ammal Dental College and Hospital offers 3 programmes, 1 at undergraduate level and 9 at postgraduate level. They are B.D.S, Master of Dental Surgery and Diploma in Dental Mechanic. The stated sanctioned intake across these programmes totals 147 seats. Meenakshi Ammal Dental College and Hospital is a constituent college of MAHER (deemed-to-be university), at Maduravoyal, Chennai; it was established in 1990 and became a MAHER constituent college in 2004. The official programme page states BDS annual intake of 100 and recognition by DCI under a 2009 order, plus nine MDS specialties with stated specialty-wise seats; these are historical/current programme-page facts, not a verified 2026-27 regulator seat matrix. The official site identifies Dr. N. Velmurugan as Principal but does not state his qualification. The college reports a Central Research Lab, an Immunohistochemistry lab and central sterilization facilities. MAHER's official college page reports 1,000+ research publications, 75+ patents, 110+ copyrights and 35+ funded projects; exact patent and project counts are therefore not entered as integers. No official 2026-27-specific academic attendance, exam-pattern or medium-of-instruction statement was located. The current official college site identifies MADCH as a constituent college of MAHER, a deemed-to-be university. The DCI/NDC college list gives the establishment academic year as 1990-91; the structured year is represented as 1990. The reviewed MCC 2025-26 PDF does contain the college-specific row: “Meenakshi Ammal Dental College and Host., Chennai1 (200385),” BDS, “Deemed/Paid Seats Quota,” total seats 100. The PDF's extracted spelling truncates “Hospital” as “Host.” No unsupported dental-chair, dental-OPD, hostel-capacity, accreditation, ranking, or 2026-27 seat figure is included.
