You will spend the first two years as a medical student (Take almost all of your classes with medical students). They have a "hybrid" PBL system. So you still get lectures, but also problem based learning. Harvard's name will help if you want to specialize, go into academia, or public health, but doesn't offer any particular advantage for being a general dentist.
I didn't go there, so that is just my impression from my interview and friends that went there.

I really love how they consider dentistry as a sub-specialty of medicine. That's the idea I grew up with. So on my interview I mainly talked about how I felt about dentistry based on my family background and personal experience, how I wanted to be a professor, and how I was amazed by the school, the students, and the 3 guys interviewed with me, and of course the PBL system. But I didn't go there. My school right now totally disagree dentistry is a sub-specialty of medicine. But that's ok.
