"Our school is high tech, with Cerec machines, Omnicams, surgical guides, intraoral cameras, and digital implant planning."
"It can feel like there are never enough faculty since they don’t all show up every week, and sometimes the ones that do disappear, are busy on their phones, or talking to each other."
"It sometimes feels like we are second class citizens to the medical and public health students, even though we all share the same campus."
What are the best things about attending Boston University Henry M. Goldman School of Dental Medicine?
BU has a great reputation for producing skilled dentists. We also have a strong alumni network.
The school is located in the South End (Boston), so there’s lots of amazing restaurants and fun things to do nearby! Students like participating in the nightlife, going hiking, or checking out the stores and historical locations.
