Look at Michigan SoD Building

Oral health is a window to overall well-being and a critical component of a healthy society. Yet, millions both domestically and globally lack access to basic dental care, suffering from diseases that are entirely preventable. As we look towards the future, it is not just about filling cavities – it's about filling gaps in healthcare, technology, education, and access. The School of Dentistry's vital mission to advance oral health across all demographics has never been more pressing or timely.
