A MESSAGE FROM SELINA ESTEVES
|
|
We have moved into a very different fall semester here at U of T Dentistry. Yet, like any back-to-school experience, this remains an exciting time, full of potential and new challenges. Our Faculty has been looking to the future: to the necessary changes that will allow our clinics to continue delivering the premium care and rich learning that are the hallmarks of our school; and to providing the tools that will quicken research discoveries and support the student experience.
I am heartened by the resilience of our students, faculty, staff, donors, friends and alumni, and who understand that change — here to stay for the foreseeable future — can indeed be good.
Sincerely,
Selina Esteves
Director, Advancement and Alumni Relations

Dentistry leadership steers Faculty into first U of T reopening
|
This fall, business is not quite as usual at the Faculty of Dentistry. But thanks to months of hard works amidst great uncertainty, students are learning (mostly online), and clinics and labs are back up and running with stringent infection control measures in place, including plenty of PPE and social distancing.

Dentistry students thrilled to return to clinical care
|
Most courses across the University of Toronto will be held remotely this fall. However, some, clinical components, like Dentistry, will be in person. After months of near total shutdown, students and their patients at the Faculty of Dentistry clinics are back.
