Program Contact
As of 2024, the AEGD and GPR programs have been merged into one allowing six residents the opportunity to further their education in a hospital setting. The program provides the recent graduate the opportunity to augment his/her knowledge of oral disease and his/her diagnostic and therapeutic skills in dentistry. Treatment of oral disease in the medically complex patient and/or hospitalized patient is emphasized. A private practice environment is maintaned throughout the program to assist the recent dental school graduate in the transition from academics to real world dentistry. All residents share similar rotation schedules and call responsibilities. Applicants who are graduates of accredited US and Canadian dental schools will be considered.
