Hepatitis C is an endemic and a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among North Indians. The present study was designed to evaluate the degree of awareness and knowledge of Hepatitis C among dental students. 520 dental students were asked to fill a questionnaire to evaluate their knowledge about this deadly disease. The data was collected and analyzed. The results revealed that most of the dental students were ignorant about Hepatitis C and its mode of transmission, steps to prevent infection, associated complications and status of availability of vaccine against Hepatitis C virus (HCV).
