concepts, guide the work of others, and manage a dental office.
The curriculum is organized as follows:
Year 1: Basic science, preclinical technique and introduction to clinics.
Year 2: Completion of basic sciences, preclinical technical courses and
beginning of comprehensive patient care.
Year 3: Clinical rotations and comprehensive patient care.
