摘要：

The study was conducted to investigate the extent to which students of two dental schools in northern India make use of internet during their undergraduate course and to assess their attitude towards the internet in general. All undergraduate students were assessed using a specially designed, self-administered questionnaire. Overall, 470 (88.84%) students used the internet. Among the internet users, only 207 (44%) accessed it for academic purposes. Also, 356 (75.7%) found information about dentistry easily accessible, whereas 114 (24.3%) reported difficulty in doing so. The study showed that a good number of Indian dental students are using internet, but they are lagging behind their counterparts in the western world.
