Mission | The School of Dental Medicine supports the missions of its academic health center and its university through programs in education, patient care and research, which benefit both public and professional constituencies at all levels. As Connecticut’s only public school of dentistry, the School of Dental Medicine is committed to providing predoctoral educational opportunities for qualified applicants who desire to become broadly competent general practitioners of dental medicine, capable of providing for most of the oral health care needs of the state’s citizens. The school actively assists its students in achieving their career goals by creating a collegial environment in which academic excellence and the pursuit of scholarship enhance the quality of instruction, advance the understanding of human biology and pathology, and raise the standards of oral health. |

Curriculum | The curriculum is designed to provide students with a comprehensive educational experience that allows them to master the knowledge and requisite skills associated with the practice of general dentistry. The goals of the program are to help students gain an understanding of human biology and the behavioral sciences, and to develop their competency in all aspects of clinical dentistry. During the first two years, dental students follow an integrated course of study in the basic sciences along with the medical students. The third- and fourth-year clinical program extends for 22 months and emphasizes comprehensive care, prevention and the emerging epidemiologic patterns of dental diseases. Students are evaluated through written and practical examinations in the medical, dental, and clinical sciences, and through observation of students’ development in patient oral health care delivery. The grading system is on a pass/fail basis. |
