Clinical Experiences
A four-year integrated curriculum with early patient contact, focusing on interprofessional care and community engagement. Clinical training is split between on-campus facilities and community-based sites.
Clinical Rotations:
- On-Campus Dental Clinic - Students build foundational skills in the new state-of-the-art dental clinic during D1-D4, with approximately half of clinical hours in D3/D4 spent here.
- Community-Based Training Sites - Approximately half of clinical experience in D3 and D4 occurs at off-campus sites in rural and underserved areas to provide exposure to diverse patient populations.
