The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio

The Department of Community Dentistry invites applications for a one-year full-time, or a two-year part-time, Residency in Dental Public Health. This accredited program is designed to allow dentists with the Master of Public Health degree or its equivalent to complete the educational requirements for Board Certification as a specialist in Dental Public Health.  The Residency prepares for careers in academic, federal, state and local health departments, community health centers, industry and the military.

 The Department has programs in epidemiology, oral disease prevention and health promotion, nutrition, cariology, sialochemistry, health services research and development, and cooperates in several school and community health center clinical programs.  Other resources to the program include the Texas Department of State Health Services, the San Antonio Metropolitan Health District, and the University of Texas of School of Public Health, San Antonio Program. 

 Financial support during the Residency in Dental Public Health may be available.
