Message from the Program Director

“In our Prosthodontics Program, residents are enrolled in a Master’s Degree  in Clinical and Translational Science. The majority of the Master’s research projects are based on clinical research and are part of ongoing clinical trials. Opportunities for other graduate degree programs as well as for preclinical and in-vitro research projects are also available.” -- Konstantinos Chochlidakis, DDS, MS
