First on the list is our new Pre-Clinic lab. You will spend a lot of time in this lab during your first and second year of dental school, and let me tell you, it really is pretty cool. Each student has their own station with a complete operatory, hydraulic manikin and electric handpieces. In your first semester, you are holding a hand piece and performing various types of restorations on practice teeth. Due to the large number of projects and requirements completed during preclinic in the first and second year, students become proficient in restorative treatments before the clinical years. Many find the intense workload so early on in dental school causes a rough transition from undergrad to UB dental. But you’ll be glad you struggled early, in preclinic, because it will alleviate a lot of struggle down the road in clinic. The amount of experience and dexterity that you gain from starting so early on in the curriculum is amazing and really prepares you for when you move up to the clinic.
