“We are working to establish an education and health hub in the state. I spoke with Union Health Minister JP Nadda about setting up Homeopathy and Ayurvedic Medical Colleges. We must try. We are working to establish an AIIMS- or RIMS-like hospital. Kidney transplants were something we never thought of,” said Dr. Saha.

He expressed joy at this milestone, stating that the inauguration of the 3D Printing Solution Centre marks another feather in the cap of Agartala Government Dental College.

He said, “Dental College was a dream project for us. We made several efforts to open this institution. Even during the previous government’s tenure, 10 years ago, we tried to open such a college. But whenever you aim to do something good, there will always be negative-minded people trying to prevent it.”

“We want Agartala Government Dental College to become a model institution in the country. Everyone should know about this college. I urge the faculty to use the latest technology,” he said.

Saha further announced that Tripura is the first state in the Northeast to establish a 3D Printing Solution Centre in Dental College.

“This is a huge achievement. Surgeries, bone grafting, and various advanced procedures, including bloodless operations, are all taking place here. More than 100 patients visit this hospital daily. By utilizing AI, this 3D Printing Solution Centre will help reduce the load on the OPD,” said Saha.
