MISSION

The Out-Patient Dental Section of this Institution aims to ensure that patients with heart disease who will

undergo cardiac surgery will be free from any dental condition that may cause complications when cardiac surgery is done.

VISION

The Dental Section envisions to improve our capabilities to accommodate more recipients of quality dental care with the least burden on their already difficult condition. We also will continue to aspire and work to educate our patients towards more awareness of how dental diseases can affect their cardiac -compromised conditions that will lead to emphasize more on prevention rather than cure.
