The Department of Pediatric Dentistry is responsible for teaching predoctoral dental students as well as advanced education students in the field of pediatric dentistry. The predoctoral program includes lecture and clinical instruction for dental students; the 24-month advanced education program prepares dental graduates to become highly-qualified pediatric dental specialists. The program is designed to encourage the development of critical thinking and an inquiring attitude on the part of advanced education students. Students obtain a Master of Science in dentistry through the Health Sciences Center and a certificate in pediatric dentistry. Applicants to the  program must apply through PASS, (Postdoctoral Application Support Service), a standardized application matching system provided by ADEA (American Dental Education Association). The LSUSD pediatric dentistry program also participates in the Postdoctoral Dental Matching Program (National Matching Services, Inc.). The advanced education pediatric dentistry program is accredited for four positions each year; all students receive stipends. Faculty members within the department provide didactic and clinical education, and also mentor students with their research projects.
