Overview
About Tagore Dental College and Hospital
Tagore Dental College & Hospital is a dental college in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, established in 2007. Tagore Dental College & Hospital is privately managed and self-financing. It is affiliated to The Tamil Nadu Dr. M.G.R. Medical University. Its programmes are approved by the DCI. Tagore Dental College & Hospital offers 1 programme at undergraduate level. The programme offered is Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS). The stated sanctioned intake across these programmes totals 100 seats. The website lists BDS (four years plus one-year compulsory internship) and MDS in Oral Surgery, Conservative Dentistry, Orthodontics and Prosthodontics, but the retrieved official pages do not publish 2026-27 programme-wise sanctioned intake, current regulator permission references, hospital bed strength, dental chair/OPD counts, or a faculty total. The attached dental hospital provides dental emergency and clinical services; the site says it follows NABH guidelines, which is not evidence of NABH accreditation. The principal is Prof. Dr. C. J. Venkatakrishnan, MDS, Ph.D, FISDR, FICD. Academic details are based on the currently presented official website pages; no medium of instruction was stated. The official college site states establishment in 2007, affiliation to The Tamil Nadu Dr. M.G.R. Medical University, and recognition by DCI. The current NDC/legacy DCI college-list PDF names the institution at serial no. The official site also shows AISHE ID C-45457, while the 2026 NIRF submission identifies institute code C-45757; these are different identifiers and are not merged.
