Historical NoteReturn to Top

The School of Dentistry was established at the University of Washington in 1945 and together, with the Schools of Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, Social Work, Public Health and Community Medicine, forms part of the state-supported Warren G. Magnuson Health Sciences Center. The School consists of nine academic departments: Dental Public Health Sciences, Endodontics, Oral Biology, Oral Medicine, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Orthodontics, Pediatric Dentistry, Periodontics, and Restorative Dentistry. The Office of the Dean is responsible for ensuring that the School continues, through educational, research, and service programs, to prepare students to be competent oral health care professionals and provide an oral health care center of excellence serving the people of the State of Washington and the Pacific Northwest.
