The Center for Advanced Dental Education at 新澳门六合彩开奖结果 offers a program in the specialty of pediatric dentistry that leads to a Master of Science in Dentistry and a certificate in pediatric dentistry. SLU's program is designed to meet the educational requirements for limitation of practice to pediatric dentistry and examination by the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry.

Emphasis is placed on all phases of pediatric dentistry. At the end of the program, the student will be able to provide comprehensive oral health care for the well child, the medically compromised child and the child with special health care needs. Extensive experience is provided in the areas of sedation, analgesia and the use of general anesthesia to deliver dental treatment. Students gain research experience by completing a master鈥檚 thesis research project.

The pediatric dental postgraduate program is located in a newly remodeled six-chair clinic. Each operatory is equipped with digital radiographic capabilities and nitrous oxide. A small office area, as well as a break room, library and classrooms, are provided for the residents.

Program Strengths

• Excellent educational program with dedicated faculty
• Large patient base with extensive dental needs
• Extensive experience managing children with a wide range of special health care needs
• Didactic core curriculum covering basic and dental science
• Extensive experience in sedation/general anesthesia
• Facilitated research experience

Curriculum Overview

Seminars cover topics relevant to pediatric dentistry, and a literature review course will discuss current and core articles from the pediatric dental literature. Multidisciplinary seminars are held in conjunction with the graduate programs in orthodontics, endodontics and periodontics. Formal courses are presented in biostatistics, oral medicine, oral pathology, early and mixed dentition, therapeutics, practice management and some basic sciences. Off-service rotations occur in general anesthesia, pediatric medicine, pediatric emergency room and craniofacial clinic. Students must complete 53 credits to graduate from the program.

Fieldwork and Research Opportunities

Students will gain operating room experience and complete clinical rotations at SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children鈥檚 Hospital. Residents provide 24-hour/seven-days-a-week dental consultations to the Cardinal Glennon emergency room, a Level I pediatric trauma center.

Students also receive training in research design and statistics and must conduct an original research project. This effort leads to the preparation and defense of a thesis and, subsequently, the production of a manuscript suitable for publication in a journal relating to the specialty of pediatric dentistry. The experience of discovery provided by such research is an integral part of the graduate program, and students are expected to produce meaningful contributions to the field of pediatric dentistry.

Careers

Our goal is to prepare pediatric dentistry graduates to pursue a career with many possibilities: as a clinician with a practice limited to pediatric dentistry, as a researcher or as a teacher of pediatric dentistry.
