Hi all,
I am a younger, pankey-trained dentist planning on applying to prosthodontic residency so that I can practice comprehensive dentistry at the highest level possible.
I had a few questions. I know that prostho programs can be extremely different with regards to philosophies, lab requirements, patient care, etc so I am curious to know which programs are known to produce the best clinicians and have a strong emphasis on gnathology/occlusion, TMD, implants and esthetics. The MSD is not that important to me, but I would like to be prepared for boards if I decide to take them. Ideally, Id like to go to a program that provides a teaching stipend/other scholarship to offset the cost of tuition a bit. Unfortunately, going the military route is not an option.
The programs I am considering so far are UW, OSU, Mich, Iowa, Maryland, LSU, UT/Baylor, UTHSSA, UCSF, UCLA, Montefiore, Tenn, UNC, UCONN.
Any input regarding other programs that I may be missing and should consider, or additional info/experiences with any of the listed programs would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance and best of luck to everyone on your journeys through dentistry.
