Ayurvedic medicine is considered as the world's oldest medical system. Ayurveda originated in India over 5000 years ago in the magnificent Himalayas.Ayurveda is a pseudoscientific system of medicine with historical roots in the indian subcontinent. Ancient Ayurvedic texts also taught surgical techniques,including rhinoplasty,kidney stone extractions,sutures, and the extraction of foreign objects. It is still practiced in the South Indian population. There are studies showing data that about 80% of Indian patients use ayurvedic therapy instead of allopathy. This is a cross sectional study conducted among 100 dental students through a questionnaire with the help of an online survey link. The responses show 79% of the participants agree that knowledge about Ayurveda is important to dental students. 80% of the participants agree that Ayurveda should be integrated with modern medicine. Dental students have a good knowledge about Ayurvedic medicine and medicinal herbs that are used in the process. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
