Message from the Dean
I am delighted to welcome you to the Faculty of Dental Medicine and Oral Health Sciences at McGill University.
Respecting and valuing inclusion and diversity, our Faculty hosts Canadian and international students who are passionate about the science and art of dental medicine, who are committed to promoting global oral health and who are curious about discoveries, research and innovation.
We want our students to have an enriching experience during the years they spend at our Faculty, and to leave us not only with accumulated knowledge and skills but as happy people. The great sense of pride and belonging, and the strong bonds between our students and Faculty which remain constant even after graduation, mean a lot to us: our students are confident and highly satisfied with the quality of their education.
