The Christian Medical Society running the Christian Medical College and College of Nursing felt the need to start a course in the dental discipline. The need was given shape by an American Missionary Dr. J.J Fason who visited India in 1968. His vision to start a modern dental clinical at the established Christian Medical College in Ludhiana was soon realized through his pioneering efforts. He served the Institution till 1972.
