Curious..anyone know the top Dental Schools in the Nation

College Search & Selection

<p>I heard the UT Health Science Center was Number 1, but I'm not sure.</p>

<p>Yeah the last time they ranked dental schools was the early 90's. Maybe Havard, Columbia and uPenn are the top now-a-days.</p>

<p>I know UConn's</a> on there (I'm from Connecticut and we hear about it all the time here), and I'm 99% sure Tufts is as well. UT-Houston's medical center is definitely one of the top ones; I have no interest in dentistry, and even I've heard of it.</p>

<p>ETA: I found this for you: <a href="http://www.predental.com/Schools.htm%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.predental.com/Schools.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>The American Dental Association is the best resource for information on dental programs. Although it doesn't rank programs, it does provide a list of accredited programs, information about what to look for in a dental school, and details about undergrad preparation and career outlook. See this site: <a href="http://www.ada.org/public/education/index.asp%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.ada.org/public/education/index.asp&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Are the pre-dental requirements the same as the pre-medical, and also the pre-vet???</p>

8

<p>I believe the requirements are the same for pre med, dental, and vet.</p>

<p>My husband went to SUNY Stonybrook (Long Island). The nice thing about it was there was only 24 people in the program so you get alot of hands on experience and one-on-one with professors. I think I heard they are up to about 35/class but that is still much lower than many (I think NYU has a couple of hundred in each class). He got into a top residency program when he graduated and has been in practice for many years. Yes, requirements are the same. The only difference is the test you take for entry (DATs as opposed to GRE-vet or MCAT-med). Infact, once in school, you usually take alot of classes with med students for the first 2 years (Microbiology, Biochemistry, Gross Anatomy etc.)</p>
