Certificate in Endodontics/Master of Science in Dentistry

Traditionally, the Graduate Endodontics Program has had as its goal the achievement of excellence in all phases of the endodontic discipline. We seek to develop clinicians of demonstrable expertise, able teachers and knowledgeable researchers. While it is recognized that only the exceptional individual possesses the characteristics that would allow him/her to excel in all three endeavors, the flexible nature of the Graduate Endodontics Program allows the student to pursue goals in keeping with his/her ability and interest. A student who receives a certificate in Endodontics must demonstrate expertise in the management of all phases of clinical endodontics. He/she must be an astute diagnostician of dental, oral and perioral pathosis, he/she must be able to render judicious emergency treatment, he/she must master both routine and sophisticated treatment procedures involving both conventional and surgical endodontic therapy. A basic understanding of the biological sciences will provide a sound basis for insight into the rationale behind diagnostic and treatment procedures. By developing the ability to analyze past, present and future endodontic literature, the graduate will be able to assess pertinent literature for meaningful answers to voids in our present body of endodontic knowledge.
