The General Practice Program is the major clinical experience of the dental students during their fourth year. The course is designed to prepare the student for the practice of general dentistry after graduation. It integrates all disciplines of dentistry. Students work with general dentists and are referred to dental specialists in a mode that resembles the private practice of dentistry. Students are assigned responsibility for patients whom they treat comprehensively. The General Dentistry faculty supervise all aspects of care. They direct the students to seek consultation from specialist dentists in developing plans of treatment and in delivering aspects of care as appropriate for individual students and patients. Principles of basic science, medicine and dentistry are integrated.
