Part I. An innovative simulation clinic opened in 1998 and helps prepare students for patient treatment. The learning setting simulates all aspects of patient treatment, including appointment systems, electronic patient records and the use of appropriate sterilized cassettes of instruments. Also, first year students gain clinical experiences in diagnosis and other clinical disciplines through clinical observation and assisting. The 3rd and 4th year curricula include advanced basic science, clinical and practice management courses and extensive clinical patient treatment using a comprehensive care system.
Students complete rotations in pediatric dentistry and oral surgery.
An extramural rotation is required. Senior elective courses permit students to explore the many different aspects of the profession which are of special interest to them personally.
