UCLA School of Dentistry

Los Angeles, California, United States of America

The UCLA School of Dentistry was established in 1964 in response to the need for a public school of dentistry in the greater Los Angeles area. The Class of 1968 became the first graduating class, with 28 Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degrees awarded. Although the UCLA School of Dentistry is fairly young, their achievements and accolades rival, and even surpass, those of other research intensive dental schools that have been around for more than a century.

Since their inception they have focused on achieving and maintaining excellence in four main areas: a comprehensive dental education, cutting-edge research, quality patient care and public service. Over the past five decades, these four main areas of focus, along with our dedicated and talented students, faculty, staff, alumni, and friends, have propelled the School of Dentistry to being one of the premier dental schools on the national and international stage.
