Community Development & Service Learning
Being a great dental school means stretching beyond the laboratory and the classroom. It is a commitment to serve dental professionals and the larger community through outreach and community development efforts.
UBC’s Faculty of Dentistry has established a strong track record for developing and implementing new community programs to serve individuals with limited access to dental care as well as providing valuable experience for our students.
The following leading community outreach programs involve faculty, students, and alumni and facilitate several unique service-learning opportunities:
