| Curriculum | The four-year predoctoral dental curriculum leads to the award of the doctor of dental medicine (D.M.D.) degree. The objectives of this curriculum are education of competent general practitioners of dentistry and preparation for lifelong learning and advanced training. The first year begins with an integrated approach in teaching the basic sciences. Students are introduced to the fundamentals of oral radiology, dental materials, restorative dentistry, periodontology, and prevention of dental disease. The second year emphasizes development of the skills needed for dental techniques. This development includes didactic and laboratory courses in facial growth, fixed and removable prosthodontics, oral surgery, periodontology, endodontology and application of dental materials. Emphasis during the third and fourth years is on clinical practice, supported by lecture and seminar sessions dealing with diagnosis of oral disease, treatment planning and clinical treatment procedures. Also, opportunities exist for dental students to participate in supervised programs that afford educational experiences off campus. As health care is more than a collection of knowledge and skills, dental professionals are encouraged to strengthen personal qualities to meet the needs of their patients and the standards of their profession. The school fosters each student’s commitment to support high ethical and moral values, a liking for people and for unselfish service an understanding of human relations, the ability to communicate and a broad understanding of the community’s and nation’s health goals. Enrolled students are active participants in the OHSU Interprofessional Initiative (IPI) and work collaboratively across OHSU’s schools and programs, building a model for interprofessional education (IPE) that makes team-based, patient-centered care the new standard. The goal of the OHSU IPI is to prepare all OHSU students for deliberatively and intelligently working together with a common goal of building a safer and more effective patient-centered and community-oriented health care system within Oregon and across the United States, ultimately impacting the health and well-being of populations worldwide. |
