| Curriculum | The University of Utah School of Dentistry will utilize innovations in dental education combined with time-tested methods. Professional qualities and ethical conduct will be the core elements in providing quality, comprehensive dental care to our patients. The D.D.S. program will provide students with an excellent clinical education in the School’s dental clinics and the University of Utah’s community clinics. The curriculum is based on a progressive presentation of oral health topics and subjects with increasing depth and complexity throughout the length of the program. This curriculum will support and maintain academic excellence in the oral health sciences through professional interaction with University Health Sciences disciplines such as medicine, pharmacy, etc. Students will be active participants along with faculty in their education process. The majority of student education will take place in our new Oral Health Sciences Education Building which includes lecture and seminar rooms, technique and simulation labs, and comprehensive and specialty care clinics. In addition to clinical experiences in the Oral Health Sciences Building, students will participate in community and mobile clinics reaching out to underserved populations in Utah. The school will promote research to enhance knowledge, advance oral health care and transition findings to the practice of dentistry. |
