Swope Health's AEGD Residency Program is designed to provide a comprehensive, interdisciplinary learning experience. Our faculty includes specialists in endodontics, periodontics, and oral surgery who will work closely with residents to build confidence in procedures such as surgical extractions, molar endodontics, implant restoration, and more. In addition, our general dentists routinely perform surgical extractions, crown and bridge, and dentures, offering strong day-to-day clinical exposure.

Swope Health is a teaching institution, and we actively collaborate with local dental schools. Our dentists and hygienists are experienced in mentoring students and residents, with a shared goal of helping each individual grow into the best version of themselves clinically and professionally.

Beyond clinical development, residents are considered full-time employees and receive a competitive stipend, benefits, and eligibility for loan forgiveness programs at the state or federal level.

Please feel free to scan the QR code found below to apply directly to our website. We hope you will consider joining our program. We are confident that we can provide the tools and support needed to help you become a skilled and confident clinician.

We are especially seeking individuals who are passionate about public health and committed to serving communities with the greatest need.

We may be able to sponsor your visa. Feel free to contact us at 816-321-3378 for additional information and to discuss whether it'll align with your professional goals.
