It is a matter of great pride and pleasure to introduce the eighth edition of Mastering the BDS Ist Year (Last 25 Years Solved Questions). The aim of this text enables the students of dentistry to learn fundamentals. All the sections are rewritten and the answers of each and every section are revised as per the latest syllabus. This new edition is updated and expanded, bringing forth new information gained since production of last edition. The text has been made more clinically oriented so as to better correlate the text with clinical aspects. The text consists of a large number of illustrations, which enhances the understanding of written description. In this edition, additional matter is added, which will help students to know the basic pattern of competitive examinations such as AIIMS, NEET, PGI, etc.
I, as an author, wish to express my hope that material presented is clear and understandable. The book is never meant to replace any of the textbook. All the respective textbooks of all subjects should be read thoroughly to gain the deep knowledge of subject. This book provides an idea of questions and answers in BDS examinations and multiple choice questions (MCQs) in pre-PG examinations. I hope that the content will be enough to stimulate the insight and new trends of thoughts in all the subjects of year.
Any of the suggestions and criticism should be welcomed at macrocyte@gmail.com.

PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION
The subjects of first year still ring fear in the minds of students—baseless fear that rest on silent assumptions and those that distort thinking. However, self-study, dedication, motivation and hard work are the virtues that go a long way in the making of a genius—a success. Listen, think, read and analyze with an open mind and you definitely cannot go wrong. I would like to clarify that this book is not meant to replace your standard textbooks, but yet coupled with your effort and sincerity, it will definitely make you clinch and help you put your best foot forward to reach great heights of success.
“When the actions become frequent than the words
Success become heavier than the dreams do more, say less.”
Hemant Gupta
This book is not meant as a replacement for the respective textbook of various subjects. It is truly an exam-oriented book.
Hemant Gupta
