We educate clinician-scientists to become competent in providing compassionate care to patients in dealing with oro-facial pain arising from pulpal and periradicular origins. Dental and postgraduate students are taught by expert faculty in pulp capping techniques, root canal procedures and endodontic surgery helping patients retain their natural teeth.

Endodontics became a recognized department in 2010. The Advanced Specialty Education Program began with the acceptance of the first class in 2012. After an extensive design process a new graduate clinic was opened in 2013, funded by donations from industry, alumni and Delta Dental of Tennessee. The state-of-the-art clinic affords postgraduate students the opportunity to train using the latest technological and disruptive technologies. Constant change is evident in contemporary endodontic practice at UTHSC. Our faculty are diverse in experience and fully contribute to the specialty through scholarly activity, presentations and service.
