The Endodontics Certificate with Master’s Option Academics is a 24-month certificate program of intensive study, research, and clinical activity. This program is designed to meet the formal requirements for eligibility to take the certifying examination of the American Board of Endodontics, with the master's option available to students that have been accepted into the certificate program.
Students interested in obtaining a Master of Science degree have the opportunity to apply for the optional 36-month program.
The goal of the program is to develop well-trained clinicians capable of providing biologically based endodontic care and potential faculty members with a comprehensive background of clinical experience. Clinical experiences include the opportunity to provide diagnostic services, nonsurgical endodontic treatment and retreatment, and surgical endodontic treatment.
