Our Vision
To improve oral health for people in Central Massachusetts which involves training general practice residents to handle a broad array of complex dental problems in underserved and medically compromised patients. It is our mission to improve oral health through a residency that focuses on the following: |
Lifelong Learning
The residency will elevate the training and skills of dental graduates through exceptional scientific and clinical programs with a dedication to life-long learning. |
Oral Health is Fundamental
In an effort to make good oral health a fundamental component of a person's overall health, our program integrates medical and dental education and clinical activity within the hospital and medical school setting. |
Community Service
Our residents will develop a strong sense of community service by participating in programs that provide access to dental care for all people, regardless of their special needs or ability to pay. |
