School Info
The University of Utah School of Dentistry is committed to educating and training excellent, compassionate and ethical dentists. As part of University of Utah Health Sciences, the Intermountain West’s only academic medical center, classes for the dental program are held in an award-winning facility in the heart of the education corridor. Opportunities for cross-professional education and collaboration in this rich environment are extensive. Located on the Wasatch Front, the U of U School of Dentistry overlooks a vibrant and growing city: Salt Lake City, which, along with its surrounding areas, offers spectacular beauty and some of the world’s best recreational opportunities.
The DDS 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. 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 that 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.
