Profile:
The D.M.D. program at the Tufts School of
Dental Medicine, which extends over a four year
period, consists of a series of didactic, laboratory,
and clinical experiences which are designed and
sequenced to result in the logical development of
concepts and skills from the very simple to more
advanced procedures. The first year consists
primarily of basic science and preclinical technique
courses. This continues through the second year with
an added emphasis on clinical participation. The
third and fourth years of the program are intensely
clinical, and include some lecture courses and many
small group seminars/workshops.
