Advanced Education --
Endodontics
The program in Endodontics is a
27-month offering designed to give advanced
education to an individual committed to the
practice, teaching, or research of endodontics.
Upon satisfactory completion of the program, the
student will receive a certificate in endodontics
and will possess the necessary credentials to be
declared "board eligible" by the American Board of
Endodontics. The student will spend approximately
60 percent of the assigned time in clinical
practice and the remaining time in basic and
clinical science lectures, research, and seminars.
Clinical experience will include the complete
scope of endodontic practice. Medically
compromised as well as healthy patients are
treated under appropriate supervision. The range
of treatment includes emergency and diagnostic
treatment, nonsurgical and surgical therapy,
microscopic endodontics, vital and nonvital
bleaching procedures, intentional replants, and
root extrusion techniques. Treatment of 300 cases
and conduct of an original research project are
required for completion of the program.
Research experience and clinical
experience beyond dental school (such as private
practice, military experience, residencies, or
teaching) will strengthen the applicant's
credentials.
The PASS deadline for applications
is August 1. Interviews are held in August
through October. Acceptances are notified as
decided.
