The department is committed to delivering evidence-based care in a safe, respectful, and patient-focused environment.
Service to Veterans and Underserved Communities
The Department of Endodontics is deeply committed to extending high-quality oral health care beyond the academic setting by serving veteran populations and patients from economically disadvantaged and historically underserved communities.
Through strategic partnerships, the department reduces barriers to care, ensuring that all patients — regardless of socioeconomic status — have access to specialized endodontic treatment. The clinic provides affordable, high-quality care using the latest technologies and techniques, delivered under the supervision of experienced faculty to ensure excellence and safety.
These service initiatives not only expand access to care but also give residents opportunities to refine clinical skills while cultivating a strong sense of social responsibility. Through meaningful community service, graduates emerge as skilled, compassionate endodontists prepared to lead with purpose.
