The AAL (Academy for Advancing Leadership) has signed an agreement with UTHealth Houston to host the academy’s Institute for Teaching and Learning Aug. 27-30 in The Cooley Center.
Nearly 20 Houston-area restaurants, chefs and caterers served samples of their creations at UTHealth School of Dentistry’s “Texas Taste Teaser,” an evening of fun, good food and friendly rivalry in support of a good cause: oral health care for underserved children, veterans and the elderly.
“Indications and Techniques for Oral Soft-Tissue Biopsies: A Hands-On Lecture and Lab” drew 120 dental students from all four class years, leading them through a hands-on biopsy training session.
Our dental school has served Southeast Texas since 1905, providing a broad range of services, from fillings to reconstructive surgery. Patients are cared for by students and residents under faculty supervision.
Each year, we enroll 100 DDS and 40 dental hygiene students. UTSD students gain clinical skills at on-site clinics, hospitals, and through community outreach projects. Advanced and continuing education programs are offered as well.
UTSD excels in several areas of research, including the biomedical and clinical sciences, education, dental informatics, and much more. Our research programs benefit from state-of-the-art equipment and world-renowned faculty.
