About the College

A Legacy of Dental
Excellence Since 2007

Vivekanandha Dental College for Women was founded in 2007 with an unwavering commitment to providing quality dental education to women across India. Nestled in Tamil Nadu, we have grown from an initial intake of 50 students into a thriving academic community known for producing skilled, compassionate dental professionals.

"We believe that excellence in dental education is not just about clinical skill — it is about empathy, ethics, and a lifelong dedication to improving oral health in our communities."

Approved by the Dental Council of India and affiliated with a recognised university, VDCW offers BDS and MDS programmes spanning nine specialisation departments. Our infrastructure, experienced faculty, and vibrant campus culture inspire every student to grow, lead, and serve.
