In 1828 the Medical College of Georgia was established and in 1965 the School of Dentistry was founded. It offers a DMD program and its modern facilities are located in Augusta. The Medical College of Georgia also has schools of Medicine, Nursing, Allied Health, and Graduate Studies. The School of Dentistry has made significant contributions to research in the field.
4-year flexible. Elementary clinical treatment of patients begins at the end of the first year, including restorative dentistry in the third semester. Conversely, some basic science courses are not completed until the senior year. Treatment of patients is carried out in a system of comprehensive care, rather than in block assignments, so as to simulate private practice of general dentistry. Students participate in off-campus clinical experiences in the summer between the third and fourth years. Students must spend their time in such settings as public health clinics and charitable health programs, as well as at private or government institutions.
A combined DMD-PhD program is offered, requiring additional years of study. Students who have been accepted but have recognizable deficiencies can attend a special presession. Students may be provided with tutors, special curricular loads, and self-paced learning packages, if they encounter academic difficulties.
Completion of a minimum of 90 semester hours of college level work, the basic predental courses, and 2 semesters in English are required. A course in biochemistry can be substituted for 1 semester of organic chemistry. Comparative anatomy, microbiology, personal management, psychology, and art (drawing and/or sculpturing) are recommended. Only Georgia residents are accepted. Transfer and advanced standing: Students are not accepted.
The school is on the campus of Medical College of Georgia, which is located on the fringe of the downtown area adjacent to a large complex of health-care facilities.
