Dental Sciences

Advanced dental education at The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio offers MS degree programs in four areas of dental sciences:  Dental Diagnostic Science, Endodontics, Periodontics, and Prosthodontics. These programs are directed toward providing opportunities for the development of well-trained clinicians competent to provide broad spectrum care and teachers with a comprehensive background of clinical experience, current basic science knowledge relevant to dentistry, and an understanding of research methodology. The graduate degree requires a thesis based on investigative projects, teaching activity, and clinical experience.
