hi reader,
Interest matters.
I would never say BDS is better than BAMS or vice versa.
In my opinion before deciding anything we must do proper research about all the streams. BDS stands for Bachelors in dental surgery and BAMS is Bachelors in Ayurvedic medicine and surgery. See BDS is a degree for those who are really fascinated by the surgery and Have inclination or interest in Modern medicine.
. Now I tell u what Dentistry can help you with. they are treating A to Z disease of teeth. From cavities to tumors to misalignment they cure and provide smile to them. This what they are doing clinically. Now let's talk about non clinical aspects they are at top researching teams they are civil officer, this field of Medicine is recognised by 193 countries all around the world. So u can practice outside India and can earn handsome amount of money. But you have to be assured that its a long time consuming field. For your PG fellowship and different post graduating fields.
BAMS has great opportunities with private and government hospitals and demand has also been increasing considering heart disease, diabetes, hormonal abnormalities and need for Ayurvedic medicines. They can also setup Ayurvedic clinic and has good income opportunities depending upon your skills and experience. Scope for BAMS is increasing day by day as the introduction of modern medicine and techniques. Also after BAMS one can do MD and can do surgery.
choose according to your interests and your choice
i hope this helps
thank you
See the above three fields are well oriented and have good scope ahead. But if you want to have a good clinical exposure or if you want to be a doctor in the government medical hospitals then going for BDS will be better. See for medical purpose there are more infrastructure for the Allopaethic medicine compared to any of the other course. So if you go for BDS you will have a better scope in terms of Government positions as well as you can do a better private clinic than that of BAMS. BAMS come under the natural healers which don't face the emergency cases. But if you go for BDS you will get the charm of being an surgeon as well as you can prescribe medicine which quite similar to that of a MBBS doctor except your are specialized to Dentistry.
