Albert McMullen, DDS LSUHSC School of Dentistry |
The LSUSD Department of Endodontics actively supports the mission of the school -- teaching, research and service. Teaching is accomplished at all levels -- undergraduate, advanced education, continuing education, and peer faculty.
Endodontics is the branch of dentistry focused on the dental pulp and tissues surrounding the roots of a tooth. Endodontic (or root canal) treatment addresses the soft pulp tissue inside the tooth.
Undergraduate courses are presented to dental students. The department offers advanced endodontic instruction and clinical experience to dental students. The endodontics clinic utilizes operating microscopes in most treatments.
Graduates of the Advanced Education Program in Endodontics are awarded a certificate in endodontics and a Master of Science in dentistry (MSD), and are educationally qualified for board certification by the American Board of Endodontics. The Department of Endodontics offers state-of-the art facilities and a faculty that includes not only talented endodontists, but clinicians from all dental specialties
