Background: Only a limited amount of information is available regarding the frequency of emergencies in dentistry practises and the teams' training in life support. A study was conducted in order to gauge oral and maxillofacial surgeons' proficiency in performing fundamental life-saving techniques in the event of an emergency. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out on a consecutive sample of 125 OMFS surgeons, including 58 postgraduate students and 67 MDS employees working in Kerala. An electronic survey was used to gather information about dentists' CPR knowledge and attitudes in light of the 2015 American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines update. Through emails and WhatsApp groups, the survey link was distributed to the targeted surgeons. The statistical software for social sciences (SPSS version 22) was used to analyse the data. Using the Chi-square test, associations between knowledge scores were evaluated. Results: Only 69.6% of oral surgeons in the current study possessed the necessary practical training to do CPR, despite the fact that 78% of them had undergone training in it.A correlation was observedbetween the years of work experience and technical knowledge (r = 0.913), Attitude and Knowledge( r =0.401). There was a correlation (r = 0.391) between work experience and attitude. A correlation (r = 0.420) was also observed between age and experience. 27% of the 125 oral surgeons had a negative opinion towards CPR, while 69.5% of them had a good attitude. Conclusion: Indian dentists are highly qualified in a number of different dental specializations. To advance dentistry in India and deliver better, safer services to the populace, it is imperative to have a better understanding of medical emergencies.
