KARACHI: Dental Insight successfully conducted a hands-on dental suturing workshop at Karachi Metropolitan University (formerly KMDC), providing dental students with a unique opportunity to enhance their clinical competence and surgical confidence through experiential learning.
Organized by Dua Khan and Mubashir Shahnawaz, founders of Dental Insight, the workshop aimed to bridge the gap between theoretical understanding and real-world surgical application. This initiative reflects the organization’s commitment to promoting experiential dental education and fostering professional growth among future dental practitioners in Pakistan.
The workshop featured renowned dental professionals who shared their expertise and guided participants through essential suturing techniques, flap design, and tissue handling protocols:
- Dr. Arzoo Azeem (BDS, MS OMFS) — Consultant Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon at ASH and Assistant Professor at KMDC
- Dr. Shaheera Zulfiqar (BDS) — Specialist in implants, orthodontics, and aesthetic dentistry
- Dr. Imad Wasif — PG trainee and OMFS resident at ASH
These experts provided live demonstrations on suturing procedures and aseptic techniques, emphasizing precision, ergonomics, and infection control—key components of safe oral surgery practice.
Participants were given access to individual surgical kits, enabling them to perform suturing exercises under close supervision. The hands-on approach allowed students to translate theoretical learning into practical skills, strengthening their understanding of oral surgical fundamentals.
The interactive nature of the session encouraged active participation, peer learning, and mentorship, making the workshop highly engaging and impactful. Students appreciated Dental Insight’s continuous efforts to offer platforms that focus on clinical skill enhancement beyond the traditional curriculum.
The event concluded with positive feedback from attendees, many of whom praised the real-world relevance of the training and the professional mentorship provided by the speakers.
