Creating an environment that feels open and welcoming to all students is a
high priority for our Program Director, Dr. Pollene Speed and the staff. It has been said that our
program is the most diverse in the state. Our dentists work directly with
students at our state of the art clinic on Wednesday & Thursday with patient
care. Monday, Tuesday, & Friday you will study Radiology or
Specialties with instructors that are also Certified Dental Assistants.
