School Info
The facility of the College of Dentistry is committed to the education of a health professional whose primary responsibility will be the prevention of oral disease and maintenance of the oral health of the public.

Much of the first two years is devoted to the biomedical sciences of anatomy, biochemistry, histology, microbiology, pathology, pharmacology, and physiology. Preclinical technical courses are also taught to achieve a close correlation of the basic sciences with the clinical disciplines.
Facilities
The College of Dentistry will soon move into the 21st century in the way dentistry is taught. With the new construction, the pre-clinical labs will have 40 workstations housing Interactive Virtual Reality Simulators that will allow the the computer to give immediate graphic evaluation of tooth preparation. Each workstation will have its own monitor so that instructors can demonstrate techniques to the entire class.
