2) DENTEST : The True Road to MDS
(Dental Pulse in Published by Paras Medical Publishers and is authored by Dr. Gowri Shankar & Dr. Suresh Shenvi)
Bible of Dentistry
AUTHOR Dr. Gowri Shankar IS CONSIDERED AS A PIONEER IN THE FIELD OF MDSENTRANCE BOOKS.
It has been around 16 years since the book is in market.. the book surely is one of its kind.. Infact in many states students start reading from the DENTEST first..Why ??.. no book will ever give you so clear explanation which is extremely important in order to understand how to answer.
Why the Book is so popular ?
- Reading Dentest will clear your confusion and gives you extra knowledge. Its almost equal to reading most of the regular books.. I have seen students avoiding reading the explanation part … May be sometimes even I had done the same thing during my preparation.
- But it was after AIIMS I realized that the answers of new questions can be found in the explanatory part. Yes the book is kind of big.. but if you are not reading theory and planning for an awesome rank in State or Comedentrance or any Deemed university.. I DOUBT. I might have been able to get rank in most of the exams.. but surely this book had made a big contribution In getting me a 6th rank in state.
- It was during my preparation when I made a list of correction in which I tried to compare the answers from pulse and Dentest.. I found many mistakes. Recently I got chance to go through it again… and it was surprising to know that some most controversial question answers were rightly explained in the Dentest than the Pulse.

And another important point why dentest is such a good book
the Dentest has many new question and there is a good amount of chance that it will be asked in exam.
1ST READING of Dentest
- Read everything.
- GET TO THE DEPTH OF EXPLANATION.. UNDERSTAND IT.. FEEL THE ANSWER!!!
- Mark imp points from the explanation. Get to know what exactly the subject is about.
Successive Reading
In the end of this blog I will surely try to give you a plan regarding the order of reading many books … but after reading Pulse and Dentest at least 3 times, then you need to mark the new questions which is absent in the Pulse. And do give more importance to them. Try to compare the answer from Pulse and Dentest. Weigh the logic between … and then accept the answer.
Few other notable books are as follows
3) BHATIA
During my time.. I had read Bhatia. I wont be able tell you much about this book as I had not gone through it completely but yes.. the book surely had very good synopsis part which according to my seniors.
4) RITU DUGGAL
Has some of the finest question specially for Ortho and Pedo.. but lacks references.. but guys.. during my time when I got 18th in PG,I the questions were lifted from the above subjects of the book.
5) MANISHA PRABHAKAR
AIPG Perio questions are directly lifted from here.. and that to in order.. do read the Perio part .
6) JATIN KARLA
Consists only of Oral Pathology question .. kind of similar to reading Shafer’s .. During my time Oral path was lifted from here.. good question for ORAL PATHOLOGY
So friends that was all about the basic book that you will need to study if you are planning to prepare for the Tough MDS / NEET Entrance Exams.
Remember books are just the tools but you are the creator. Just like the ancient man leaned to prepare fire out of told like wood and leaves, so can you achieve your success by hard work using the tools and books properly.
All the Best and go for it !
