Course Overview

We can help you get on the path to a multifaceted, flourishing dentistry career -- and few professions are more promising. Research studies continue to show that oral health is linked to overall health. This means there is a growing need for competent, compassionate dentists.

Becoming an effective caretaker of teeth, gums and all of the mouth’s other elements will require a strong science foundation. At Lipscomb, pre-dentistry students are ensured of gaining an integrated study of essential scientific principles: mathematics, biology, chemistry and physics. Even more, because dental schools will expect you to have had hands-on experiences in the field, we can help you identify relevant networking and clinical opportunities outside of the classroom. You’ll also have access to resources such as the Health Professions Advisory Committee (HPAC) scholarship.
