Endodontics

About Program

The postdoctoral program in endodontics is a 24-month certificate program  that balances clinical experience with didactic instruction in the relevant basic and clinical sciences.

The clinical portion of the program is microscopically oriented, providing the  student with modern concepts of endodontic treatment including rotary NiTi  instrumentation, electronic apex locators, guided tissue regeneration, ultrasonic instrumentation, and use of digital radiography. Joint conferences  with other disciplines such as periodontics, prosthodontics, pediatric  dentistry, otolaryngology, and neurology provide the student with a  well-rounded basis to diagnose and treat conditions in the head and neck region.

The didactic portion of the program includes a core curriculum designed to  provide all postdoctoral students with a basic interdisciplinary education and  a detailed endodontic curriculum that concentrates heavily on knowledge of   the literature. The program is designed to fulfill the specialty certification of the American Board of Endodontics. The program also includes research,  teaching, and instruction by several well-known visiting professors.
